Ingredients

Step 2: Prepare the Sausage Patties

• Place frozen sausage patties in a single layer in the air fryer basket

• Leave space between each patty for best airflow and even heating

• No oil or spray needed

Step 3: Air Fry to Perfection

• Cook at 380°F for 6–8 minutes, flipping halfway through

• Patties should be heated through with a light crisp on the outside

Let rest for 1–2 minutes before building sandwiches or serving.

Pro Tips for the Best Results

Flip Halfway for Even Browning

Turning the patties ensures an even, crispy finish on both sides.

Use a Thermometer for Best Results

Fully cooked patties only need to be heated to 165°F, but checking ensures perfect doneness.

Layer Between Paper Towels (Optional)

After cooking, blot lightly if you want to remove any surface grease.
