Enjoy homemade, perfectly cooked air fryer sausage patties with our simple and versatile recipe. Great for a healthy, delicious breakfast or any meal of the day.
In a large bowl, mix together the sausage meat, breadcrumbs, egg, salt, black pepper, and any optional herbs until well combined.
Shape the mixture into round, flat patties of equal size.
Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
Place the patties in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 10 minutes, turning halfway through, or until the patties are browned and cooked through.
Let the patties rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Notes
Preheat the air fryer before adding the patties to ensure they cook evenly.
Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket; air circulation is crucial for achieving a crispy texture.
If using a non-stick air fryer basket, there’s no need for oil. If not, slightly oil the basket to prevent sticking.
For uniform patties, use a cookie cutter or a lid of a jar to shape them.
Allow the patties to rest for a couple of minutes after cooking; they continue to cook slightly from residual heat.
