AIR FRYER BRATS RECIPE

Sausage and peppers is a favorite classic of mine, and these Air Fryer Brats with sliced onions and bell peppers is the the best hot sandwich.

Put everything in a hot dog bun with some mustard, and I can already hear the seventh inning stretch music!

These brats in the air fryer are as delicious as they are on the grill but without the hassle.

The skin gets crispy while the inside stays juicy, giving you the perfect sausage.

How to make Air Fryer Brats

Most everything cooked in the air fryer needs a little bit of oil, even though most have a nonstick coating.

Be careful with some aerosol oil spray (Like Pam) in the air fryer basket because it will damage the nonstick coating.

If you still want to be able to use a sprayer, invest in an oil mister or sprayer that you can refill with your favorite oil!

1. Slice bell pepper and onion into thin slices, no more than ½ inch thick. Any color of bell pepper will work here! I prefer orange.
2. Add sliced veggies to air fryer basket or tray and lightly spray with oil. Cook for about 5 minutes at 350°F or 175°C.
3. Remove brats from package.
4. Add brats to air fryer with veggies.
5. Cook veggies and brats about 15 minutes more. Be sure to shake or stir twice during the cook time.
6. Serve and enjoy!

How to serve Air Fryer Brats

These are great as a sandwich with some mustard, mayo, pickles, or ketchup (your preference!) but can also be served as a main dish with no additional ingredients!

To plate without a bun, I would serve the sausages, sliced or whole, on top of the onions and bell peppers with a side salad or another side.

What to serve with bratwurst sandwiches

These Air Fryer Brats are great with chips or tater tots!

Just like toppings, almost any side goes with this recipe!

For a party, I like to make these with my Deviled Egg Pasta Salad which brings the flavor of the holidays to a great summer dish!

Looking for lighter options? Our Mediterranean Quinoa Salad is a great vibrant addition of more veggies to the plate filled with quintessential Mediterranean flavors like olive oil, lemon, and parsley.

Pro Tips

• Use Any Air Fryer: This recipe can be made in an air fryer unit with a basket or an air fryer oven. If you're using an air fryer oven, place your food on the middle rack and select the "air fry" function.
• Check your food as it cooks! Since each air fryer runs differently, sometimes air frying is a trial and error process. When cooking a new recipe, be sure to check on your food often. This will help you avoid over or undercooking, and help you learn your air fryer's specific ways!
