Ingredients
1 Kid Cuisine Mini Corn Dogs Meal (frozen)
Cooking spray or parchment liner (to prevent sticking)
Optional Add-Ons & Extras:
Ketchup, mustard, or honey mustard for dipping
Shredded cheddar cheese for a cheesier mac & cheese
Crushed crackers or breadcrumbs for a crunchy mac & cheese topping
Hot sauce or BBQ sauce for extra flavor
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Air Fryer
Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and let it preheat for about 3-5 minutes. Preheating ensures even cooking and a crispier texture.
Step 2: Prepare the Frozen Meal
Remove the meal from the box and plastic film, keeping the food inside its tray.
Separate the mini corn dogs from the mac & cheese and corn to ensure even cooking. Place the corn dogs directly in the air fryer basket.
Cover the mac & cheese and corn with foil to prevent them from overcooking or drying out.
Step 3: Air Fry the Mini Corn Dogs & Sides
Mini Corn Dogs Only: Cook at 375°F for 10-12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even crisping.
Mac & Cheese and Corn: After 6 minutes of cooking, place them in the air fryer on a small air fryer-safe dish and continue cooking for another 4-6 minutes until fully heated.
For Extra Crunch: Lightly spray the mini corn dogs with cooking spray before air frying.
Step 4: Serve & Enjoy
Carefully remove the mini corn dogs and sides from the air fryer and let them cool for 1-2 minutes before eating.
Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauces like ketchup, mustard, or honey mustard.
