Description
Yes, you can make a juicy, delicious burger straight from frozen — and the air fryer makes it ridiculously easy! Whether you're in a dinner-time pinch or just don’t feel like firing up the grill, this method delivers that crave-worthy burger without the fuss.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1–4 frozen beef burger patties (¼ lb each, any brand)
- Salt & pepper, to taste
- Burger buns (or lettuce wraps for low-carb/low-point)
- Optional toppings:
- Lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles
Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 370°F for 3–5 minutes.
- Place frozen patties in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
- No need to thaw or add oil.
- Air fry for 12–14 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temp reaches 160°F.
Notes
- Don’t overcrowd the basket! Leave space between patties for even airflow.
- Add cheese during the last 1–2 minutes so it melts perfectly.
- Look for leaner options (90/10 or 93/7) for fewer WW points.
