Craving a juicy, perfectly cooked hamburger without the hassle of grilling? Look no further than your air fryer! Cooking hamburgers in an air fryer at 350°F is a quick and easy way to achieve that delicious, browned exterior and tender interior. But how long *exactly* does it take?
Generally, for a 1/4 pound burger, you're looking at around 8-10 minutes at 350°F. For thicker patties (1/3 pound or more), increase the cooking time to 10-12 minutes. Remember to flip the burgers halfway through to ensure even cooking.
**Pro Tip:** Use a meat thermometer to guarantee perfection! Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the patty. For medium-rare, aim for 130-135°F; medium, 140-145°F; and well-done, 160°F or higher. Air fryer models can vary, so these times are guidelines. Start checking for doneness on the earlier end of the time range.
Enjoy your delicious, air-fried burger!
