🥘Ingredients

For the Patties

1 pound ground beef (80/20 or 85/15)

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

4 hamburger buns

Optional toppings: cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, ketchup, mustard

👨‍🍳Directions

1In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix gently until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.

2Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 3/4 inch thick. Make a small indent in the center of each patty with your thumb to prevent it from puffing up during cooking.

3Preheat your air fryer to 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about 3 minutes.

4Place the patties in the air fryer basket in a single layer, leaving space between them for air circulation. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.

5Air fry the patties at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 to 12 minutes, flipping halfway through. For medium doneness, cook until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees Fahrenheit.

6If adding cheese, place a slice on each patty during the last minute of cooking. Remove patties from the air fryer and let them rest for 2 minutes.

7Serve on hamburger buns with your favorite toppings.
