Instructions
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). If your air fryer requires it, lightly grease the basket or use parchment paper.
Shape the ground beef into a patty, about 1 inch thick. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
Place the seasoned burger patty in the air fryer basket. Cook for 8-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, or until it reaches your desired doneness. For medium, aim for an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
During the last 2 minutes of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of the burger patty to melt.
While the burger is cooking, lightly toast the burger bun in a toaster or directly in the air fryer for 1-2 minutes (after removing the burger).
Assemble your burger: Spread ketchup on the bottom bun and mayonnaise on the top bun. Place the cheesy burger patty on the bottom bun. Top with lettuce, tomato slices, and red onion slices.
Place the top bun on your burger and serve immediately. Enjoy your perfectly crispy and juicy air fryer burger!
