Turkey Burgers in the Air Fryer

Serves 4 in about 23 minutes. The pot starts with bread crumbs, then cheese.

Ingredients

• 1 egg
• ⅓ cup bread crumbs
• ¼ cup whole milk
• 1 tsp kosher salt (or 3/4 tsp regular salt)
• ½ tsp pepper
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• ½ tsp onion powder
• ¼ tsp poultry seasoning
• 1 lb ground turkey (85% to 93% lean)
• Sliced cheese (optional)

Method

1. In a bowl, beat the egg. Then add the bread crumbs and the milk. Stir well.
2. Stir in the salt, pepper garlic powder, onion powder, and poultry seasoning. Stir well.
3. Tip in the ground turkey and mix well with a fork to combine ingredients.
4. Form 4 (4 oz) burger patties, or 3 (6 oz), or 2 (8 oz). Make an indent in the center of each patty about the size of a nickel (this helps reduce puffing up).
5. Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray and add the burger patties.
6. Close the lid and select the air fryer option for your model.
7. The burgers should be at least 165° F internal temperature to be done.
8. If you want a cheeseburger, place slices of cheese on the burgers and close the lid for a couple of minutes to melt it.
9. Lift out and build a fabulous turkey burger!
