Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef, lean
- salt & pepper, to taste
Directions
- Preheat the Air Fryer on 400 degrees F for 2-3 minutes.
- Divide the ground beef into 4 even portions and form into round patties. Season both sides to taste.
- Place the hamburger patties in a single layer in the basket of Air Fryer.
- Cook on 400 degrees F for 10-12 minutes. Flip patties hafway through.
Notes
- I recommend using 93% lean ground beef in these air fryer hamburgers.
- Use a hamburger press to make even patties to ensure even cooking.
- Press a shallow well into the center of the patties before cooking to prevent the burgers from shrinking.
- To make cheeseburgers, place a slice of cheese on top of the patties after air frying then close the air fryer basket without turning the machine on. This will melt the cheese.
- To reduce smoke from the air fryer, use leaner beef, empty grease if needed, and avoid overcrowding.
