Ingredients

Notes

  • Use a brand of hot dogs your family is familiar with and enjoys the flavor of. While this method of cooking is easy with minimal clean up, it doesn't alter the actual flavor of the hot dogs themselves.
  • When adding the hot dogs to the basket of the air fryer make sure not too overcrowd them. There needs to be space in between each to allow air to circulate properly as that's how the air fryer cooks.
  • There's no need to rotate these while they cook. The air circulating around and between them will function the same as turning them would.
  • Surprise your picky eaters with hot dogs in their packed lunch! These can be made the night beforehand, allowed to cool, and packed for lunches. For an even fresher option, make them in the morning.
