How To Make Easy Ninja Foodi Burgers

Placing burger patties in the Ninja Foodi air fryer basket.

Step One: In a large bowl, mix together the ground beef, soy sauce, garlic powder, Kosher salt, and black pepper. Divide the ground beef into equal portions and form them into burger patties. 

Step Two: To prepare your Ninja Foodi, select the “Air Crisp” function and set the temperature to 400 degrees F. Preheat for 2-3 minutes. 

Step Three: Once the Ninja Foodi is preheated, place patties in the air frying basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Depending on the size of your Ninja Foodi, you may need to cook them in batches.

Step Four: Close the Ninja Foodi lid and air-fry the patties for about 7-8 minutes, flipping halfway through. Cook until the patties reach your desired level of doneness and develop a golden-brown crust on the outside.

Step Five: Prepare your burger buns and desired toppings while the patties cook. Once the patties are done, remove them from the Ninja Foodi and let them rest for a minute. Place each cooked patty on a burger bun and add your favorite toppings.

What To Serve With Easy Ninja Foodi Burgers

Easy Ninja Foodi Burgers Recipe Tips

  • Preheat Properly: Ensure your Ninja Foodi is adequately preheated before adding the burger patties.
  • Season Liberally: Season patties with salt and pepper or your favorite seasonings for maximum flavor.
  • Avoid Overcrowding: If necessary, cook the burger patties in batches to prevent overcrowding in the Ninja Foodi basket.
  • Use a Meat Thermometer: For precise doneness, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the burger patties. Aim for 160°F (71°C) for well-done burgers.
  • Rest Before Serving: Allow the cooked burger patties to rest for a few minutes before assembling the burgers.
  • Making Cheeseburgers: Wait until the cooking time is complete, then place a slice of cheese on top of the patty and close the air crisper basket. The residual heat will melt the cheese evenly.
  • Get Creative with Toppings: Experiment with various toppings from classic lettuce and tomato to gourmet options like caramelized onions or avocado!
