  3. Preheat your air fryer to 370°F (185°C) for about 5 minutes.
Cooking

  2. If adding cheese, place a slice on each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

  2. Serve and enjoy your crispy and juicy burgers!

Notes

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat, use the air fryer at the original cooking temperature for about 3-4 minutes.
