WHY I LOVE THIS RECIPE
When morning are hectic, these sausage patties are fast and easy. You can start with frozen sausage patties, or use ground sausage to make them quickly. I like to use fresh patties that aren’t frozen, but are already shaped and ready to cook!

INGREDIENTS
- Premade Raw Sausage Patties- like Bob Evans, Jimmy Deans, or Johnsonville
For Homemade Sausage Patties
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Nonstick cooking spray– avocado or olive oil spray
DIRECTIONS
STEP 1
Preheat air fryer to 380°F.
STEP 2
Form the ground sausage into equal-sized patties and season with salt and pepper, if desired.
STEP 3
Spray the air fryer basket lightly with nonstick spray.
STEP 4
Place the sausage patties in the preheated air fryer, in a single layer without overlap, (you may need to do this in batches) and cook for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through cooking process, until an instant-read thermometer to confirm internal temperature reads 160°F. They should be golden brown and hot on the inside.
EXPERT TIPS
- If using a roll of sausage to slice and air fryer, try to cut the slices into the same thickness so they cook evenly. The sausage patties I made were about 1/2 inch in thickness.
- Use a meat thermometer to confirm internal temperature.
- I make this recipe in my Cosori Air Fryer. Depending on the size and wattages, you may need to add 1-2 minutes extra time.
- Transfer cooked sausage patties to a paper towel to absorb any extra grease before serving.
VARIATIONS
- Use ground turkey, ground chuck, or any type of meat you like. Try to keep the fat ratio to 80/20.
- Try flavored sausages such as apple, maple, blueberry maple, or black pepper.
- Drizzle real maple syrup on top of sausages before serving.
- For a hearty breakfast plate or quick meal on the go, make a breakfast sausage sandwich with a slice of cheese, eggs on a bagel, brioche bread, or English muffin.
STORING AND REHEATING
These air fryer sausage patties are an easy and delicious way to get a healthy breakfast on the table in no time. You can also freeze any leftovers for a quick grab-and-go option later.
Store leftover patties in an airtight container, or wrapped in aluminum foil, in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
FAQ’S
You can air fryer straight from frozen! Just add a few minutes cook time.
If you want your sausage patties to be exactly the same shape, use an round biscuit or cookie cutter.
