Air Fryer Cooking

I’m still fairly new to air fryer cooking, but I am loving it! An air fryer is essentially a mini convention oven, so it is excellent at removing moisture from foods and creating a crispy exterior.

Many people think an air fryer is a deep fryer, but it is not. Just think of an air fryer as a small oven.

Recipe Highlights

This recipe is grain-free, gluten-free, and so easy.
Turkey burgers can be served on a gluten-free bun. Or, for a low-carb option, serve the burgers on a salad or on top of spiralized zucchini noodles.
You can meal prep these burgers and re-heat them throughout the week. Or, freeze the cooked burgers and serve them at a later date.

Recipe Steps

Step One

You won’t believe how easy this recipe is. Just mix together the ingredients and form the patties with your hands.

Description

You’re going to love these easy and juicy Air Fryer Turkey Burgers. This recipe is perfect for a quick weeknight meal.

Ingredients

Nonstick cooking spray
½ cup water
1 pound ground turkey
1 egg
¼ cup almond flour (or your favorite flour)
¼ teaspoon sea salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon dried garlic
¼ teaspoon dried oregano

Instructions

Spray the basket of an air-fryer lightly with nonstick cooking spray.
Add the water to the bottom of the air fryer. This will keep any grease from smoking during the cooking process.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, egg, almond flour, sea salt, black pepper, garlic, and oregano. Use your hands to mix the ingredients together and form four patties.
Place the patties in the air fryer basket and set the time to 360°F for 12-14 minutes, or until an instant read thermometer reads 165°F.

Notes

Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Or, you can freeze the cooked burgers for up to 2 months.
