Notes

These hot dogs are best enjoyed fresh from the air fryer while they are still warm and cheesy. If you have leftovers, let them cool down and then wrap them in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat them in the air fryer for a few minutes until warmed through. Make sure to spread enough butter on the bread for that crispy texture. You can use any type of cheese you prefer; just ensure it melts well. Feel free to add extra toppings like sliced pickles or jalapeños inside for added flavor.
