Notes

  • Cooking Adjustments:

    • Adjust the cooking time based on your air fryer model and patty thickness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure patties reach an internal temperature of 165°F.

    Toppings Suggestions:

    • For a lighter option, use lettuce wraps instead of buns.
    • Add flavor with avocado slices, cheese, or homemade sauces like garlic aioli.

    Storage Tips:

    • Refrigerate leftover turkey burgers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
    • Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 3–4 minutes.

    Health-Friendly Options:

    • Use low-sodium turkey patties to reduce sodium intake.
    • For a gluten-free meal, serve with gluten-free buns or lettuce wraps.

    • Add seasoning like paprika, garlic powder, or Italian herbs to enhance the taste.
    • Experiment with toppings like pickles, jalapeños, or caramelized onions for a gourmet touch.
