Ninja Air Fryer Frozen Hamburgers
Ninja Air Fryer Frozen Hamburgers provide a straightforward method to cook frozen beef patties evenly using an air fryer. The process involves air frying the patties at 350°F, flipping them halfway through to ensure even cooking. Seasoning is added after the flip for enhanced flavor. The burgers are cooked to a safe internal temperature and then served on buns with optional cheese and toppings. This approach is practical for quick meal preparation using frozen ingredients.

Ingredients
- 4 hamburger patties frozen
- 1 tablespoon burger seasoning
Instructions
- Place the frozen hamburger patties in a single layer in the basket. I was able to fit 1 pattie in my Ninja foodi, but the number you can fit will depend on the size of your air fryer you are using.
- Air fry the frozen hamburgers at 350°F/ 176°C for 7 minutes, flip, then season with your favorite seasonings. Flipping helps them cook evenly so do not skip this step. Cook for a further 7 minutes until done (an internal read thermometer inserted on the thickest part of the burgers should read at least 160°F).
- Once cooked, remove the hamburgers using a spatula and place them on buns. Top with cheese (if you prefer), and your favorite sauces, and toppings. Serve and enjoy!

Notes
- Place hamburger patties in a single layer to cook evenly; avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket.
- Adjust cooking time based on patty thickness; thicker patties need longer cooking to reach 160°F internally.
- Season patties after flipping to enhance flavor without burning the seasoning.
- Use foil or baking paper at the bottom of the basket to prevent smoke during cooking.
- Wrap and store leftover cooked patties in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or freeze them for 5-6 months.
- Add cheese slices halfway through cooking if melted cheese is desired on the burgers.
- Choose seasonings and toppings compatible with specific dietary needs like keto, gluten-free, or paleo as preferred.
