Ingredients
- 1 pound uncooked bratwurst

Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 360°F.

- Be careful when checking the internal temperature, the hot juices can squirt out.
- Let the bratwurst rest a few minutes before serving.
- Nutritional info is for bratwurst only, buns and toppings are not included in the calculation.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheat in the air fryer for 3-5 minutes until just warmed through.
