Air fryer breakfast sausages are a quick way to get breakfast to the table. Cooked in about 10 minutes, air-fried sausage links are lightly crisp on the outside and plump and juicy on the inside. They can be cooked from fresh or frozen making breakfast easy.
If the sausages are linked, cut them apart then place them in a single layer in the air fryer basket leaving a bit of room between them for air circulation.
Place the basket in the air fryer and set it to 390°F. Cook the sausages for 9-12 minutes for thawed sausages, or 12-15 minutes for frozen sausages until they are fully cooked. Turn halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Remove the sausages from the basket and serve.
Notes
Sausages are fully cooked when no longer pink in the middle or when an instant-read thermometer inserted in the middle of the sausage reads 160°F for pork sausages or 165°F for poultry sausages. Cooking time will vary slightly depending on the size of the sausages.
