Description
These crispy air fryer hot dogs are perfectly cooked and served with sweet caramelized onions and a drizzle of mustard for a delicious and easy meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 hot dogs
- 4 hot dog buns
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Mustard for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced onions and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are caramelized, about 10-15 minutes.
- While the onions are cooking, score the hot dogs lengthwise with a sharp knife to create slits. This helps them cook evenly and adds a crispy texture.
- Place the hot dogs in the air fryer basket and cook for 5-6 minutes, until they are crispy and heated through.
- Toast the hot dog buns in the air fryer for the last 1-2 minutes of cooking.
- Assemble the hot dogs by placing each hot dog in a bun, topping with caramelized onions and a drizzle of mustard.
Notes
- Feel free to customize your toppings with cheese, relish, or your favorite condiments.
- For extra crispy hot dogs, you can increase the cooking time by a minute or two.
