air fryer

Ingredients

1.5 lbs ground beef 80/20
4 hamburger buns
2 tsp salt or to taste
1 tsp ground black pepper or to taste
2 tsp granulated garlic or to taste
1 tsp smoked paprika or to taste
4 slices cheddar cheese
1 tomato
1 red onion
lettuce
ketchup

Instructions

First, start by seasoning the ground beef with salt, pepper, granulated garlic and smoked paprika.
Shape the ground beef into patties. I got 4 burger patties out of 1.5 lbs of ground beef.
Preheat the air fryer to 375 degrees F for 5 minutes.
Place the burger patties inside the air fryer. I was able to fit 4 patties inside my 7 qt. If you have a smaller air fryer, you’ll have to work in smaller batches.
Cook at 375 degrees F for 8-11 minutes (flip halfway) according to how well done you like your burger.
Remove the burger patties from the air fryer and top with cheese, tomatoes, onions, lettuce, ketchup and pickles between two hamburger buns and enjoy!

Notes

If you like your burgers very well done, you’ll need to cook them for at least 15 minutes.
Cooking times may vary depending on the power of your air fryer.
Always read your air fryer manual before cooking in it.
The seasoning measurements posted in this recipe are used as a general guideline. Always season to taste.
Hamburgers are safest to eat once the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F. Use a kitchen thermometer to measure the temperature.
