- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Pepper
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- Cut the smoked sausage into bite-sized Hasselback sections without cutting all the way through.
- In a bowl, mix maple syrup and BBQ sauce together.
- Brush the sausage with olive oil, and season it with salt and pepper.
- Coat the cut sections with the maple BBQ mixture.
Cooking
- Place the sausages in the air fryer basket and cook for 10-12 minutes, until they are charred.

Notes
For extra crunch, try cooking them a little longer in the air fryer. Experiment with different flavors of BBQ sauce for variety. Ensure to cut the sausage deep enough for flavor while not cutting all the way through.
