Step 1
Start by heating your air fryer to 390°F (200°C) and let it come up to temperature for about 4 minutes. While that’s warming up, make 5 small slits in each hot dog. Sprinkle about half a teaspoon of taco seasoning evenly over each one, rubbing it in a bit so the flavors stick. Pop the hot dogs into the air fryer basket and cook them for around 5 minutes. After that, place the hot dogs in buns and put them back in the air fryer for another 4 minutes or so, until the buns are nicely toasted and the hot dogs have a bit of a crisp. Finish by piling on some guacamole, salsa, and jalapeños to taste. Enjoy!
