Ingredients
Equipment
Steps
- 1
Mix ground turkey with Worcestershire, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- 2
Form into 4 patties, making them slightly larger than the buns (they shrink). Make a thumbprint indentation in the center.
- 3
Air fry at 375°F for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway, until internal temp reaches 165°F.
- 4
Add cheese during the last minute to melt.
- 5
Assemble on toasted buns with your preferred toppings.
Tip: The thumbprint indent prevents the burger from puffing into a ball. Worcestershire adds the umami flavor that lean turkey needs. Don't press the patties while cooking — you'll squeeze out moisture. 165°F is the safe temp for poultry.
Why Air Fry This?
- ⏱️Ready in 12 minutes vs ~22 in a conventional oven — no preheating needed.
- 🍖Circulating hot air renders fat and seals in juices for a crispier outside and tender inside.
- ⚡Uses significantly less energy than heating a full-size oven for a single batch.
