Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef 80/20 or 90/10 fat content
  • 2 teaspoons Montreal Steak seasoning salt/pepper blend, or your favorite burger seasoning
  • Burger fixings: buns lettuce, tomato, ketchup, mustard, cheese, etc.

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400º F.
  • Divide the ground beef into four equal patties. If you'd like to make less than 4 hamburgers, use 1/4 lb per patty (about 1/2 cup or 4 oz).
  • Shape each patty to be about 1-2 centimeters wider than the width of the bun you're using. Using two fingers, press an indent into the middle of each burger.
  • Season each patty on both sides with 1/2 teaspoon of your favorite burger seasoning or salt and pepper.
  • Place each patty into the preheated air fryer and cook for 9-12 minutes, or until the burger registers at a minimum of 165º F using an instant read thermometer.
  • Remove from the air fryer and serve immediately.

Notes

  • If you'd like to add cheese to your air fryer hamburger, place a slice of cheese on top of the burger patty 1 minute before the end of the cook time.
  • I found that the burgers turned out pretty similar whether they were flipped halfway through the cook time or not. It's your preference.
