I love having my ingredients be a little bigger than bite-sized, but feel free to size them however you want. If you do make them smaller, you will need to decrease the cooking time.

For the baby potatoes, I kept them whole. But you can cut them in half if you feel like they are too big.

You can also use other potatoes like Yukon gold or even russet potatoes. Just be sure to cut them down so they will cook through all the way.

Type of sausage to use:

For this recipe we used precooked sausage without the skin, however, you can use what you like! Here are some suggestions:

Chicken sausage
Kielbasa sausage
Beef sausage

After 10 minutes, add the rawsausage into the air fryer basket and air fry for an additional 10 minutes (If you cut your sausage into smaller pieces, cook for about 3-5 minutes) or until potatoes are cooked through.
