We like a good hamburger or Danish beef patty as we call them. They are served both the classic Danish way with soft onions, or with all sorts of other kinds of side dishes. We really love to make air fryer hamburgers, it is easy and fast, and the cleaning is even easier. Get our recipe here.
Quick and easy hamburgers in Air fryer
We like to eat Danish beef patties. It’s something that all 4 of us really like, and you can vary the side dishes endlessly.
It’s always nice to have a Danish beef patty with soft onions, but a with fries and béarnaise is also just lovely.
We are pretty excited about making hamburgers in our air fryer. Because it’s just easy and they take care of themselves once they’re put on.
In addition, it does not mess up the stove and surrounding walls, and it is easy to just throw the air fryer basket in the dishwasher.
So absolutely perfect everyday food for a busy family with children like ours.
In addition, the hamburgers are perfectly cooked every time, and you can easily fry them so that they are still pink in the middle if you also prefer to have a beef patty like that.
Ingredient notes
Beef – We must of course use minced beef. We usually choose something with some fat in it to get the juiciest steaks.
Salt and pepper – Classic patties just need to be well seasoned with salt and pepper, but you can of course experiment with other spices if you like.
How to make Air fryer hamburgers?
It is actually quite easy to make air fryer hamburgers.
First, of course, they must be shaped, and this is exactly the same as if you wanted to fry them in the frying pan.
After that, they get oil spray, and then they have to have salt and pepper before they are placed on the rack at the bottom of the air fryer basket.
Then the patties just need to be put in and the machine switched on, and then they need to have approximately 10 minutes at 180 degrees Celcius. Then they are as we would like them to be. Delicious and juicy. If you want them to be a little pinker, try to cook them for 8 minutes, to begin with.
It depends a lot on the type of machine you have, so the first time you make them, you have to experiment a bit until you find the right cooking time. Of course, it also depends on the thickness of the patties.

Tips and tricks for Air fryer hamburgers
- The first time you try the recipe, you have to experiment a little with cooking time. It is because it is very different how air fryers heat. In ours, it is perfect with 10 minutes. But they may only need 8 in yours, or maybe 12. Once you hit the perfect time, it will be easier the next time you have to make the patties.
Serving suggestions
- Serve your patties the classic Danish way with boiled potatoes, soft onions, and brown grawy, just like Danish beef patties with caramelized onions.
- Serve with a nice salad, for example, a green salad with apples and cranberries and some root vegetables cooked in the oven.
- Serve in homemade burger buns or your favorite way.

-
The patties are sprayed with a thin layer of oil and seasoned on both sides with salt and pepper to taste.Olive oil, Salt, Pepper
- Preheat your air fryer for a few minutes at a temperature of 180 degrees Celcius.
- When the air fryer is hot, put the steaks on the rack and cook them for approx. 10 minutes at 180 degrees Celcius. – If you want them to be slightly red, you only have to give them 8 minutes.
- When the steaks are ready, take them out of the air fryer and serve them immediately.
- Attention: Not two air fryers heat the same way, so the first time you try the recipe, it is important that you keep an eye on the patties and adjust the time if needed. Our air fryer is a Cosori Dualblaze, and 10 minutes is perfect for that machine.
