If frozen, separate gently—no thawing needed.
Place in a single layer in the air fryer basket or tray, leaving space for even cooking.
Step 3: Air Fry to Perfection

Step 4: Rest & Serve
Let rest for 1–2 minutes, then serve in buns or slice into your favorite recipes.
Pro Tips for the Best Results
Flip Midway for Even Browning
Rolling or flipping halfway through helps achieve crisp skin on all sides.
Score the Ends
Make shallow cuts at both ends for a curled finish and faster cooking.
Don’t Overcook
Jumbo franks may split if overheated—remove promptly once hot and golden.
No Oil Needed
These franks crisp naturally in the air fryer—skip the cooking spray.
