Ingredients
- 5 sausage links (fresh or frozen - such as chicken, kielbasa, bratwurst or Italian),
Instructions
COOK UNFROZEN (FRESH) BREAKFAST SAUSAGE
- Place sausages in a single layer in the basket. Set the temperature to 180°C (350°F), close the fryer, and cook for 14 minutes or until properly browned on and cooked through (minimum internal temperature 160°F). Make sure to flip the sausages halfway through cooking using a pair of cooking tongs.
- Serve with eggs, toast, or your preferred accompaniment.
COOK FROZEN SAUSAGE LINKS IN THE AIR FRYER
- Program the air fryer at 160°C or 320°F. Place the frozen sausage links into the air fryer basket (you do not need to cut them up) and cook for 8 minutes to kickstart the defrosting and cooking process.
- Once the air fryer beeps, flip the sausages and now air fry at the increased temperature of 180°C (approximately 350°F) for a further 7 minutes to enable the sausages to brown up and attain an internal temperature of at least 160°F. Make sure to check on them halfway through cooking. Serve and enjoy.
Notes
- Cooking Times for Frozen Sausages:
- First, cook the frozen breakfast sausage links in the air fryer using the following cooking times as a guide:-
- Once slightly defrosted, flip and cook using an increased temperature of 180°C or 350°F for a further 7 minutes or until the sausages brown up and attain an internal temperature of at least 160°F (71°C).
- Other Useful Notes:-
- Nutritional information is an estimate, calculated using tools that we use. It will, therefore, vary depending on the individual products used and should therefore, only be used as a rough estimate. Nutritional information is based on 1 serving size of one sausage.
- ¼ inch thick - 7 to 8 minutes at 320°F (160°C).
- ½ inch thick - 8 to 12 minutes at 320°F(160°C).
- 1 inch thick - 10 to 15 minutes at 320°F(160°C)
- The cooking time has only been calculated for fresh sausages, in this recipe card.
- Increase the cooking time by a few minutes for thicker sausages, and make sure to check on them halfway through air frying.
- Place a piece of parchment paper, aluminum foil, or a few pieces of bread at the bottom of the basket, to help catch the grease and prevent smoking.
