Cooking hamburgers in an air fryer is super easy! Shape your ground beef into patties, season them with salt and pepper, and place them in the air fryer basket.

How do you keep air fryer hamburgers juicy?

To keep burgers juicy, don’t press them while cooking, as this squeezes out the juices. Use ground beef with a bit of fat, like 80/20. You can also add a splash of Worcestershire sauce or a little butter to the meat before cooking for extra flavor and moisture.
