Air Fryer Jimmy Dean Sausage

Step 1

Preheat your air fryer to 350 degrees F (175°C) for a few minutes. This helps ensure even cooking and a crisp exterior.

Step 2

Place the desired number of Jimmy Dean sausage patties in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Leave a little space between each patty to allow air circulation.

Step 3

Cook the sausage patties in the preheated air fryer for about 8 to 10 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time. The exact cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the patties and the air fryer model.

Step 4

After the initial cooking time, check the internal temperature of the sausage patties using a meat thermometer. The safe internal temperature for cooked pork sausage is 160°F (71°C). If needed, cook for a few more minutes until the desired internal temperature is reached.

Step 5

Once cooked, remove the sausage patties from the air fryer and let them rest for a minute. Serve them hot as a delicious breakfast protein, or use them in sandwiches, wraps, or other recipes.
