Air Fryer Burgers Recipe

This air fryer burger recipe provides a quick and convenient way to enjoy juicy burgers with your preferred toppings, perfect for a hassle-free meal.

Equipment

• Air Fryer

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground beef (80% lean)
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 4 hamburger buns
• Cheese slices (optional)
• Burger toppings (lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, etc.)
• Condiments (ketchup, mustard, mayo, etc.)

Instructions

1. Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
2. In a mixing bowl, gently combine the ground beef with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika. Be careful not to overmix to keep the burgers tender.
3. Divide the seasoned ground beef into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into a patty, making them slightly larger than your burger buns as they will shrink during cooking.
4. Place the burger patties in the air fryer basket, leaving some space between them.
5. Cook the burgers in the air fryer at 375°F (190°C) for 6 minutes.
6. Flip the burgers and cook for an additional 6 minutes for medium doneness. Adjust the time based on your preferred level of doneness.
7. If you’re adding cheese, place a slice on each burger during the last minute of cooking, allowing it to melt.
8. Meanwhile, you can lightly toast the burger buns in the air fryer for about 1-2 minutes.
9. Remove the burger patties from the air fryer. Assemble your burgers by placing the patties on the buns and adding your favorite toppings and condiments.
10. Serve the air fryer burgers immediately while they’re hot and juicy.
