Air Fryer Frozen Hot Dogs
I am sure by now, if you have read Recipe This for a while, that you will know us Milners have a thing for hot dogs and sausages.
They are one of those delicious foods that cook so well in kitchen gadgets.
We love to make instant pot hot dogs and get excited over the dirty water method. Our readers have been following our air fryer hot dogs recipe for some time now and we also love to air fryer sausage links.
Sausages have been a thing of mine for more years than I can remember and our instant pot frozen Italian sausages is inspired by early cooking I did for Dominic when we first set up home.
Air fryer frozen hot dogs came about because we had some spare German sausages in the freezer, plenty of frozen hot dog buns and wanted to share with you how easy it is.
That you have a simple way for cooking your favourite frozen hot dogs and that dinner does not have to be a big deal. You can throw it all in the air fryer and have a delicious dinner to share with your family.
You can then choose how you like them. That might be mustard, mayonnaise, burger sauce or even tomato ketchup.

Can You Put Frozen Hot Dogs In Air Fryer?
Yes you can and they are AMAZING. Frozen hot dogs cook better in the air fryer compared to fresh. That is because the wet moisture from the frozen hot dog sausage helps decrease the amount of smoke in the air fryer.
Plus, you have no worries about food waste because you can grab your hot dogs directly from the freezer, remove the packaging and load them into the air fryer basket.
They are also perfect for those lazy days when you are too tired to cook but have mouths to feed. Just throw your frozen hot dogs in air fryer and you are all set.
