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

1. Remove the meal from the box and plastic film, keeping the food inside its tray.

2. 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.

3. 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.

How to Serve This Mini Corn Dog Meal

• Classic Kid’s Plate: Serve with extra mac & cheese and apple slices.

• Crunchy Upgrade: Top mac & cheese with crushed crackers or toasted breadcrumbs.

• Spicy Kick: Dip in Buffalo sauce or sriracha mayo for a bold flavor.

Pro Tips for Best Results

• Shake the basket halfway through cooking to ensure even crisping.
