Ingredients

Corn Dogs: You can use any brand of corn dogs such as Foster Farms corn dogs, Morning Star corn dogs, Costco corn dogs, Kroger corn dogs or any store brand. They are all generally the same size.
Cooking Spray: Be sure to use an air fryer safe cooking spray. Certain sprays with aerosol are not recommended as they can harm the air fryer basket coating. I prefer using an oil spray mister that I fill with my own oil of choice. It’s a great cost effective option.
Dipping Sauce: Dipping sauce such as ketchup, mustard, relish or barbecue sauce
