Whether you serve them for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, these Air Fryer Sausage links offer a quick, straightforward, and fuss-free method for preparing your favorite sausages.
Pierce the sausages a few times using a small knife or a toothpick to help them release more fat.
If using vegetarian sausages or lean sausages, spray with some oil on them to avoid the sausages sticking to the pan. You can also use a brush if you don't have spray oil in hand.
Place the sausages in your air fryer's basket in a single layer, without overlapping them.
Set the air fryer to 190° C (375° F) and then cook the sausages until they’re nicely browned and crispy on the outside and the core temperature reaches 74 °C (165 ° F).
It takes about 15 to 17 minutes, depending on the thickness of the sausages and how many you have in the basket.
Notes
Use a cooking thermometer to ensure the doneness of the sausages.
If you have a smaller air fryer or you want to feed a crowd, cook them in batches to avoid overcrowding the basket(s).
Modify the cooking time based on the size of your sausages. If you're using frozen sausages, include a few extra minutes in your cooking time.
