Ingredients for Crispy Corn Dogs

- Preheat. You get the best texture if you let the air fryer warm up for 3+ minutes first.
- Cook. Place the corn dogs in the air fryer in a single layer and cook for 10-12 minutes, making sure to shake or flip halfway through.
- Cool. Allow corn dogs to cool for a couple minutes before biting into them.

I highly recommend serving these up with Air Fry Frozen French Fries and some Taco Bell Quesadilla Sauce for a fun twist! They’re also great with ketchup or mustard.
Air Fry Corn Dogs FAQs
Yes, mini corn dogs need 3-5 less minutes than full-size corn dogs.
If your air fryer is small or narrow, you may need to cut the tip of the stick off so that it will fit better.
No, I recommend cooking 3-4 corn dogs at a time or however many can fit WITHOUT overlapping in your air fryer. If you overfill it, the corn dogs will take longer to cook and will not have a crisp exterior.
