Begin by preheating your air fryer to a cozy 375°F (190°C). This gets it perfectly ready for your delicious burgers.
Grab your Beyond Meat patties! If they're frozen, simply place them directly into the air fryer basket in a single layer—no thawing needed. If you're cooking more than one, make sure they aren't touching so they cook evenly.
Pop the basket into the preheated air fryer. For frozen patties, cook them for 14-16 minutes, making sure to flip them over gently halfway through the cooking time. If your patties are already thawed, they'll be done quicker, needing only 9-12 minutes, with a flip midway as well.
Keep an eye on your burgers as cooking times can vary slightly. They're ready when they look beautifully golden brown and reach your desired crispiness. For food safety, the internal temperature should be at least 165°F (74°C).
Once cooked to perfection, carefully remove the juicy Beyond Burgers from the air fryer. Let them rest for just 1-2 minutes. Serve these healthy plant-based delights on your favorite buns with plenty of fresh, crisp summer toppings like lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles for an ultimate easy meal!
