Turkey Burgers are a great lunch or dinner.

Making them from scratch and then cooking them in the air fryer is a healthy wan than cooking them in a pan on the stovetop.

The air fryer cooks them perfectly and keeps them juicy and full of flavor. They also have a nice crust thanks to the air fryer.

How to make Air Fryer Turkey Burgers:

Prep: Start by mixing your ingredients and forming the burger patties. Sit the patties in the refrigerator for about an hour to firm and chill.

Preheat: Preheat your air fryer to get it ready for the burgers.

Spray your air fryer tray with a nonstick cooking spray and place your patties in it leaving space between them to allow the air fryer to fully cook all the sides of the patty.

Cook: Cook for 5 minutes then take the tray out and flip the burgers and cook for another 5 minutes. Build your burger how you like and enjoy!

  • Ground Turkey: you can use ground  beef for this recipe if you want to change it up.
  • Onion: red onion that has been sliced thin and small.
