Easy Air Fryer Bratwurst (Brats) - Keto

This recipe cooks bratwurst sausages atop chopped red and orange bell peppers and onions in an air fryer. The method produces juicy, browned brats with tender, slightly caramelized vegetables. The peppers and onions complement the savory sausages, all cooked without oil, making it a straightforward, contained meal prepared by air frying for 10 minutes.

Description

Bratwurst are placed on a bed of chopped colorful bell peppers and onions in an air fryer basket preheated to 390°F. The air fryer quickly roasts the sausages while softening and lightly crisping the vegetables beneath. The brats reach a juicy texture with a browned exterior, while the peppers and onions add sweet and savory notes with some crisp edges.

This dish can serve as a quick main course, easily paired with mustard or sauerkraut, or used as a protein-vegetable side for other meals. The lack of added oil keeps it lighter, relying on the air fryer’s heat circulation.

Adjust pepper sizes for desired crispiness; smaller slices get more crisp. Cooking times may vary depending on air fryer models, so checking for an internal bratwurst temperature of 160°F is recommended. Leftovers store well refrigerated for up to three days.
