Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Burger Patties

  1. In a bowl, mix ground beef, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
  2. Divide into 4 equal portions and shape into patties, slightly larger than your lettuce wraps (they shrink when cooked).

Step 2: Air Fry the Burgers

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 3 minutes.
  2. Place patties in the air fryer basket in a single layer (use parchment paper if needed).
  3. Cook for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  4. In the last 1-2 minutes, add a slice of cheese on each patty and let it melt.

Step 3: Assemble the Lettuce Wrap Cheeseburgers

  1. Lay out lettuce leaves and spread mayonnaise, mustard, and ketchup.
  2. Place a cheeseburger patty on each lettuce wrap.
  3. Add tomato, onion, and pickles.
  4. Fold the lettuce around the burger like a wrap or use an extra leaf to hold it together.

Step 4: Serve & Enjoy!

  • Secure with toothpicks or wrap in parchment for easier handling.
