Enjoy perfectly cooked air fryer hot dogs with toasted buns and your favorite toppings. This quick and easy recipe uses an air fryer to cook the hot dogs evenly and warm the buns to a delightful crisp with melted cheese optional. Ideal for a delicious snack or casual meal.

Ingredients

Scale

Hot Dogs and Buns

  • 8 hot dogs
  • 8 hot dog buns

Toppings

  • Relish, as desired
  • Mustard, as desired
  • Ketchup, as desired
  • Chopped onions, as desired
  • Shredded cheese, optional

Instructions

  1. Cook the Hot Dogs: Place the 8 hot dogs in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Set the temperature to 400°F and cook for 6 minutes, allowing the hot dogs to heat evenly and develop a slight crisp on the outside.
  2. Toast the Buns with Hot Dogs: Remove the hot dogs from the air fryer and place each in a hot dog bun. Return the assembled hot dogs to the air fryer basket and cook at 400°F for an additional 1 to 2 minutes. This step warms the buns and toasts them lightly. If using shredded cheese, add it on top of the hot dogs now so it melts during this step.
  3. Add Toppings and Serve: Remove the hot dogs from the air fryer, top them with relish, mustard, ketchup, chopped onions, or your favorite condiments. Serve immediately for best taste and texture.

Notes

  • You can customize the toppings to include your favorites such as sauerkraut, jalapeños, or pickles.
  • For extra crispy buns, leave them in the air fryer an additional minute, watching closely to avoid burning.
  • Use a toothpick to test hot dogs for desired doneness if cooking times vary based on air fryer models.
  • Make sure not to overcrowd the air fryer basket to allow for even cooking.
  • Shredded cheese is optional but enhances flavor when melted over the hot dogs.
