How to cook turkey burgers in an air fryer

Cooking turkey patties in an air fryer is incredibly simple. You can cook our fresh Shady Brook Farms patties and have a super satisfying meal ready to go in about 20 minutes. Our patties come pre-mixed, pre-formed, and pre-flavored, so you can take them out of the package and put them right in the air fryer.

Our turkey patties are delicious on their own, but you can also add cheese and your other favorite toppings to the patties if you’re so inclined. For more turkey burger instructions and inspiration, read on!
