FAQs
I like cooking hot dogs in the air fryer because it’s so easy and because I always get good results. All that hot circulating air crisps the outer surface of the hotdog perfectly, and the inside is always juicy and tender. When you remove the hot dog batch from the air fryer, you’ll see – they are just as good as grilled hot dogs, but easier!
Yup! Toast the buns at 350 degrees F for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. The timing works out perfectly while the hot dogs are cooling after air frying.
There’s nothing easier! Add on five extra minutes if you’re cooking frozen hot dogs in the air fryer.
Yes, you can! But you need to adjust the cook times and temperatures. Just place them in your air fryer basket, making sure they don’t touch, and set a cooking time of 8 minutes at 350 F.
Beyond ketchup, relish, and mustard, my favorite toppings are creative and gourmet. I like a drizzle of this white sauce and diced tomatoes and chopped onions to make Italian-style air fry hot dogs. Or cheddar cheese and a heaping mound of these sautéed onions and peppers.
For kiddos, serve with simple homemade chips. For a more elaborate meal, serve these air fryer hot dogs on standard hot dog nuns with sous vide corn on the cob and an avocado ranch salad, or on brioche hot dog buns with my creamy zucchini soup.
