Craving a juicy burger but short on time? Forget thawing! This Air Fryer Frozen Hamburger Patty recipe is your new weeknight hero. Seriously, you can have a delicious, perfectly cooked burger ready faster than ordering takeout.
Here's the magic: simply preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Place your frozen hamburger patty directly into the air fryer basket. No need to oil the basket unless your patty is extra lean. Cook for approximately 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through. The exact cooking time will depend on the thickness of your patty and your air fryer model, so check for an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) using a meat thermometer.
Once cooked, load it onto your favorite bun with all the fixings – lettuce, tomato, cheese, bacon (because why not?). Enjoy a satisfying, quick, and easy burger that's perfect for a solo meal or a busy family dinner. Air frying delivers a surprisingly juicy burger, no thawing required!
