Ingredients

  • 4, 1/4 lb frozen hamburger patties
  • Oil for brushing or spritzing
  • 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.
  • Brush or spritz each frozen hamburger patty with oil.
  • 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 12 minutes, flipping halfway through cooking. Check the temperature starting at 10 minutes cooked and cook 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.
