Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 5 minutes. This ensures that your hot dogs cook evenly and achieve that perfect crispiness.
Once preheated, take the hot dogs and place them in the air fryer basket. Make sure they’re not overcrowded to allow for proper air circulation.
Let the hot dogs air fry for about 5 minutes. You’ll notice them plump up and develop a nice golden color.
After the time is up, carefully remove the hot dogs from the air fryer. They may be hot, so using tongs is a great idea.
Allow them to cool slightly before serving. This step is crucial to avoid burning your fingers when you’re putting them in the hot dog buns.
If you desire toasted buns, place the hot dog buns in the air fryer at 350 degrees for 2 to 3 minutes until golden brown. This will elevate your Air Fryer Hot Dogs to gourmet status!
Finally, serve your Air Fryer Hot Dogs with your favorite condiments and toppings. Whether you prefer mustard, ketchup, onions, or relish, the choice is yours!
