Cooking Regular Stick Corn Dogs vs Mini Corn Dogs

Both these sizes of corn dogs in the air fryer cook up perfectly. Timing will vary between brands and sizes.

Regular size corn dogs are pretty consistent between different brands. The mini corn dogs will have more variation so just monitor the timing in the air fryer and cook until they’re warmed and crispy.

Use the same temperature for either regular corn dogs or mini corn dogs. Just use a couple minutes less time for the minis.

The mini will fit in the air fryer baskets easier. For some air fryers, you may need to cut the stick down a little to fit in the basket.

Cook both kinds of corn dogs in a single layer. Don’t stack them up in the air fryer. If you need to cook a bunch, cook in batches.

There are Square Mats & Round Mats. These perforated non-stick silicone mats are used to cook food in your air fryer or steamer to minimize sticking. Holes allow hot circulating air to cook the food & keeps the food from sticking.

Parchment sheets are great for your air fryer or bamboo steamer (food tends to stick most on wire basket or tray). Choose from different sizes, shapes, white and brown (unbleached). Holes allow air to cook food evenly.
