      Can We Make Turkey Burgers Ahead of Time?

      Oh, yes! when you have an air fryer, you don’t need to worry. You can make burger patties and freeze them for later. The cherry on top is you can even freeze fully cooked turkey burgers and air fry them later without worrying about the taste.

      How to Cook Frozen Burgers in The Air Fryer?

      These turkey burgers store nicely and can be cooked in the Air Fryer straight from the freezer. Cook frozen burgers for 18 minutes at 360 degrees Fahrenheit, rotating halfway through. Make sure your turkey burger has reached 165 degrees Fahrenheit using a quick read thermometer.

      What Is the Best Way to Add Cheese to These Burgers?

      After air frying the burger, add the cheese and close the basket for a few minutes without plugging in the air fryer. While your burger sits in the warm air fryer, the cheese will melt. The melted cheese will enhance the softness of the burger.

      How To Make Juicy Turkey Burger? 

      There are two secret ingredients that you can use to moisten the ground turkey.

      #1. Unsweetened apple sauce:

      It is the secret element in keeping those turkey burgers soft and juicy. It will add moisture to your burgers and maintain their juiciness. 

      #2. A little bit of onion:

      Add freshly grated onion to the beef mixture to enhance moisture and flavor. It always works and yields perfectly cooked juicy turkey burgers.

       

      What Seasonings Can I Use to Enhance the Flavor of Turkey Burgers?

      Well, I like my turkey burger simple. Therefore, I have not used many ingredients to season my ground turkey. But you can surely use some of these options:

      • BBQ seasonings
      • Taco seasoning
      • Ranch seasoning
      • Greek spices
      • Italian spices

      Some Awesome Burger Topping Ideas:

      The possibilities for topping these turkey burgers are endless.

      • Tomatoes
      • Lettuce
      • Bacon
      • BBQ Sauce
      • Avocado
      • Sprouts
