    Notes

    • You can use any sausage variety based on your taste preference (spicy, mild, or even turkey sausage for a lighter option).
    • Adjust the seasoning to your liking. Some crushed red pepper flakes or Italian seasoning can add extra flavor.
    • If you don’t have an air fryer, you can also bake these in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes.
