How To Cook Beyond Burgers (Fresh or Frozen) in Air Fryer
Description
How To Cook Beyond Burgers (Fresh or Frozen) in Air Fryer offers straightforward steps to prepare plant-based burger patties using an air fryer. The recipe details cooking times for fresh and frozen patties at 360°F, flipping midway to promote even browning and a well-cooked interior reaching 165°F. Because the burgers contain oil, additional basket lubrication isn't needed, though using perforated parchment is suggested for easy cleanup. A homemade burger sauce made from ketchup, mayonnaise, and pickle juice adds a tangy accompaniment.
The recipe encourages serving the cooked Beyond Burgers on buns with optional fresh toppings such as lettuce, tomato, red onion, pickles, or cheese. Adding cheese involves a short resting period in the warm air fryer to melt it properly.
By carefully following these instructions, one can achieve plant-based patties with a texture and appearance similar to traditional burgers, suitable for a variety of meals.

Notes
- Place Beyond Burgers in a single layer in the air fryer basket for even cooking; do not overcrowd.
- Flip patties halfway through cooking to promote uniform browning and heating.
- Check for doneness using a meat thermometer to ensure internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- If adding cheese, place it on the patties at the end of cooking and close the air fryer basket to melt with residual heat for about 30 seconds.
- Using perforated parchment paper in the air fryer basket helps with cleanup without affecting cooking.
