How To Make Air Fryer Cheeseburgers
INGREDIENTS
Ground Beef: We recommend using an 80/20 lean-to-fat ratio because this is the ideal ratio for burgers that are juicy and tender but still hold firm in their structure.
Garlic: Garlic adds an extra bite and a little more flavor to this burger that we think really brings it over the top.
Low-Sodium Soy Sauce: Even though it may sound odd, soy sauce adds umami to these burgers that brings out the meaty flavor and makes them extra delicious.
Salt & Pepper: Don’t forget to season your burgers! Salt and pepper will make sure that the patties don’t lack flavor.
American Cheese: Who doesn’t love American cheese on their burger!? We certainly do.
Hamburger Buns: When it comes to burger buns, we always recommend brioche or a potato roll, but definitely use your preferred bun!
Mayonnaise: We love spreading mayo on our burger buns to add extra fat and flavor! You can skip this ingredient if it’s not your thing.
Lettuce, Tomatoes, & Red Onion: All the fixings are a must! We like a burger with everything on it, but feel free to top your burger with whatever you choose.
