Directions
Preheat air fryer to 375°F for 5 minutes. Combine beef, Worcestershire, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Form the mixture into 4 (4-ounce) patties, about 1/2-inch thick.
Working in batches if necessary, arrange the patties in a single layer in the air-fryer basket. Cook, flipping once, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 160°F, about 7 minutes. Top each patty with a cheese slice and cook until melted, about 30 seconds.
Assemble the burgers on toasted buns with lettuce, tomato, onion and pickles.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)
- Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
