Ingredients for Air Fryer Burgers

How to Make Air Fryer Burgers

1. In a bowl, combine the beef, Worcestershire sauce, salt, garlic powder and onion powder.
2. Use a light hand to mix the beef and seasonings together and form 4 burger patties.
3. Add hamburger patties to the air fryer in a single layer in the basket.
4. Cook the patties for eight minutes at 360 degrees Fahrenheit. Flip them over and cook them for another six to eight minutes. The internal temperature 160 degrees Fahrenheit to be safe to eat.
5. Place a slice of cheese on each and cook them for another minute or until the cheese is melted. Repeat with the other patties!

Storage and Reheating

If you want to season your beef and form the patties to freeze them for another time, you can. Freeze in a single layer then wrap in plastic wrap and store in a freezer bag. Cook in the air fryer from frozen and add about 5 minutes of cook time.

Fridge: Store cooked burgers in a single layer in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Store buns and toppings in separate bags and containers.

Freezer: You can store cooked hamburgers in the freezer for another time. Thaw in the fridge overnight.

Reheat burgers in the air fryer at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 4 minutes, flipping halfway.

So, are you ready for burger night this week?! I know your family will love these and you will love how easy the juicy hamburger recipe is to make – enjoy!
