Pro Tips for the Best Results

Flip Halfway for Even Heating

Turning both the pancakes and sausage halfway ensures everything heats evenly.

Use a Light Oil Spray (Optional)

You can lightly mist the pancakes with oil for a slightly crispier texture if desired.

Cook in a Single Layer

Avoid stacking so hot air can circulate around each piece for even crisping.

Serve Fresh for Best Taste

Morning Combos are best when hot and fresh out of the air fryer.
