Place your hamburger patty into the basket/tray of your air fryer.
Cook your air fryer burger for 8-10 minutes at 350°F (176°C). At the 5 minute mark (halfway through cooking your hamburger), flip the patty over to ensure that it will cook evenly. The burger is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. You may need to adjust the time.
When the air fryer is done cooking, you can add a slice of cheese and continue cooking for 1 minute at 350°F to melt the cheese. (This is optional.)
Remove the hamburger from the air fryer basket and place onto bun. Add desired toppings, and enjoy!
Notes
There are many different sizes and types of patties. This recipe gives you a "starting" point for 4 oz patties. You may need to adjust the recipe time up/down depending on your patty, each air fryer runs a bit differently.
This recipe can be made in an air fryer unit with a basket or an air fryer oven. If you are using an air fryer oven, use the middle rack and choose the “Air Fry” function.
Check your food as it cooks. Each air fryer runs a bit differently. Make sure to check your food as it’s cooking to learn your air fryer better and avoid over- or undercooking.
