Hot Dogs In An Air Fryer?
Using an air fryer is the best way to cook hot dogs! Not only do they come out juicy and tender, they take less time to cook. Plus there is no need to heat up the oven for the buns. And who doesn’t love minimal cleanup? One appliance, two steps, and lots and lots of delicious toppings! For a classic all-American “diner night,” make air fryer baked hot dogs with a side of fries and a fun macaroni salad. Complete the meal with some mississippi mud cookies for a delicious dessert treat!
How To Cook Hot Dogs In The Air Fryer?
Air Fryer Hot Dogs with toasted buns are super easy and fun to make!
- Open buns, and space them in the air fryer. Cook for 2 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Space hot dogs evenly in the air fryer basket and cook on high for 3-5 minutes.
- Serve with your choice of toppings
PRO TIP: Cooking frozen hot dogs – cut a row of slits on the outside (so they don’t burst during cooking), and air fry for 7 to 8 minutes.
Hot Dog Toppings
While the dogs and buns are cooking, make a condiment platter with relish, chili, cheese, salsa, or sauerkraut. Don’t forget the ketchup, mustard, onions, and jalapenos! Yum!
