First, preheat the air fryer to 400F.
Then remove the sausage patties from the package and place in the preheated air fryer.
For fresh, cook 4 minutes each side or 6 minutes each side for patties 1/4 inch thick and thicker.
For frozen, air fry frozen sausage patties for 6 minutes each side. The sausage patties I tested when cooking from frozen all were done under 15 minutes. This will vary on the power of your air fryer.
When sausage patties in the air fryer are done allow them to cool a bit because the insides are very hot. Serve.
