Cooking sausage links in the air fryer is one of the easiest ways to get perfectly browned, juicy sausage with minimal effort. This method creates a crisp exterior while keeping the inside tender, all without needing to stand over the stove.

Ingredients

  • 12 pork sausage links (about 1 pound)

Instructions

  • Preheat your air fryer to 375°F.
  • Arrange the sausage links in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving space between each link for proper airflow.
  • Cook at 375°F for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway through for even browning.
  • Check that the internal temperature reaches 160°F using a meat thermometer.
  • Remove from the air fryer and let rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Cook time may vary slightly depending on the thickness of the sausage links and your specific air fryer model.
  • Cook Sausage Patties for 10-12
  • Avoid overcrowding the basket to ensure even cooking and browning.
  • For best results, use a meat thermometer to confirm doneness rather than relying on time alone.
  • If cooking from frozen, add 2–3 additional minutes and separate links as they thaw.
