Ingredients

• 1 or more Great Value Sausage Patties (frozen or refrigerated)

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Air Fryer

Set your air fryer to 370°F (188°C) and allow it to preheat for 2–3 minutes. This helps the sausage cook evenly.

Step 2: Arrange the Patties

Place sausage patties in a single layer in the air fryer basket. If frozen, no need to thaw.

Step 3: Air Fry to Perfection

Cook at 370°F (188°C) for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure both sides brown evenly.

Step 4: Check for Doneness

The internal temperature should reach 160°F (71°C) for pork or 165°F (74°C) for turkey sausage. Add 1–2 extra minutes if needed.

Step 5: Serve & Enjoy

Let rest briefly, then serve hot as part of your favorite breakfast or brunch combo.
