❤️ Why You'll Love It

• It is hardly a recipe!!
• Quick and easy.
• Suitable for cold winter and hot summer days.
• No need to fire up your grill.
• Easy cleaning, easier than the skillet method.

ِAir fryer burgers have a crispy crust yet juicy from the inside which makes it very appealing to both children and adults. Pair it with freshly baked buns and your favorite topping to make the perfect homemade burger sandwiches.

📝 Ingredients

Note: This is an overview of the ingredients. You'll find the full measurements and instructions in the recipe card (printable) at the bottom of the page.

📋 Ingredient Notes

• Use your favorite homemade or store bought frozen burgers. Mine were a ⅓rd pound and about ½ inch each so yours might be a little different.
• I like using the spices pictured above including the Montreal steak seasoning, this is totally optional. Use whatever burger spices you like, can be as simple as garlic powder, salt and pepper.

🥄 Instructions

Note: This is an overview of the instructions. The detailed instructions are in the recipe card below.

• Sprinkle the spices over the patties

• Line the drip pan with aluminum foil, arrange frozen burger patties in the air fryer basket and air fry on 360 degrees F for 6 minutes then flip to the other side, sprinkle with more seasoning if you like and air fry again for 3-4 minutes or until it reaches your desired doneness level.

👍 Amira's Tips

• Although my air fryer is so easy to clean lining the drip pan or the bottom of your air fryer with aluminum foil makes for an even easier clean up. Please check your manual for restrictions before doing that.
• Cooking time will vary depending on the thickness and the size of the burgers.
• I sprinkle spices on one side of the burgers only.
• You can use this recipe on homemade frozen beef patties made from ground beef as well.
• In case your air fryer smoke especially when cooking fatty food or if you are cooking multiple batches consider adding a couple of tablespoons of water or a piece of bread in the dripping pan or at the bottom of your air fryer. Please refer to your manual for safety and proper use.
• Cover the burger with aluminum foil tent and rest for 3-4 minutes before serving.

🧺 Storage

It is better to consume burgers as soon as they are done to ensure juicy and delicious burgers. However if you have leftovers place them wrapped in tin foil in your fridge for up to 2-3 days or in your freezer for up to 3 months.

👩‍🍳 Variations

You can make literally any frozen burger in the air fryer the same way. Sprinkle with your favorite spice mix, air fry at 360F until it is done. According to the FDA the safe temperature for chicken or turkey burgers is 165F, and 145 for salmon.

Serve With

• Your favorite potato salad, potato chips, air fryer frozen onion rings, french fries or air fryer frozen sweet potato fries.
• Use your favorite burger toppings like lettuce, tomatoes, onions, pickles and do not forget to slather the buns with some of this big mac sauce.
