How To Make Air Fryer Corn Dogs
Step #1. Take the corn dogs out of their packaging and arrange them in a single layer inside the air fryer basket. Make sure to leave some space between each corn dog to ensure they cook evenly. Set the air fryer temperature to 360 degrees Fahrenheit and cook the corn dogs for 10 to 12 minutes.
Step #2. Remember to flip them around halfway through the cooking time, which is at the 6-minute mark. Once they’re done cooking, remove the corn dogs from the air fryer, and they’re ready to be served. Enjoy your delicious crispy treats!
Recipe FAQs

Air Fry at 360 degrees F for 10 to 12 minutes, turning them around at 6 minutes.
To prevent sticking, you can lightly coat the air fryer basket with a non-stick cooking spray or brush it with a little oil before placing the corn dogs inside. This will help the batter release easily.
Expert Tips
- Preheat Your Air Fryer: Give your air fryer a few minutes to preheat before adding the corn dogs. This ensures they cook evenly.
- Don’t Overcrowd: Make sure to leave some space between each corn dog in the air fryer basket so that the air can circulate and cook them evenly.
- Rotate Halfway: If you’re making a big batch, halfway through cooking time, flip the corn dogs or rotate the basket to ensure even cooking.

Air Fryer Corn Dogs
Ingredients
- 5 frozen corn dogs
Instructions

- Air Fry at 360 degrees F for 10 to 12 minutes, turning them around at 6 minutes.

Notes
- The internal temperature of a cooked corn dog is 165 degrees F.
- Depending on the air fryer you are using, temperature and time may vary. I would suggest not to go too high in the temperature because you want to heat the corn dogs through and if the temperature is too high it will burn the outside before the inside is ready.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days
- Re-warm: Air fry at 350 degrees F for 3 to 4 minutes.
