Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Air Fryer Pork and Sausage Meatballs.
Step 1
Start by preheating your air fryer to a cozy 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
While that warms up, grab a large mixing bowl and combine the ground pork, Italian sausage, panko bread crumbs, egg, salt, dried parsley, and paprika.
Step 3
Get your hands in there and mix everything together until it’s well blended—this is where the magic happens! Now, using an ice cream scoop, shape the mixture into 12 delightful meatballs and place them on a baking sheet, ready for their air-frying adventure.
Step 4
Carefully add half of the meatballs to the air fryer basket, making sure they have enough space to breathe and cook evenly.
Step 5
Let them cook for 8 minutes, and then give the basket a gentle shake to ensure they’re cooking evenly.
Step 6
After that, let them sizzle for an additional 2 minutes.
Step 7
Once they’re perfectly cooked, transfer the meatballs to a serving plate and let them rest for about 5 minutes—this helps them stay juicy and flavorful.
Step 8
Now, repeat the cooking process with the remaining meatballs.
Step 9
And there you have it—delicious, homemade air-fried meatballs that are sure to impress! Enjoy them on their own or with your favorite sauce.
