Directions

  • Air Fry the Beef First
    🔸 Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
    🔸 Break raw ground beef into small pieces and mix with onion powder, salt & pepper.
    🔸 Spread onto a sheet of parchment or foil in the air fryer basket (use a rack or tray if needed).
    🔸 Air fry for 4–5 minutes, stir halfway. Once browned, remove and let cool.
  • Mix & Form
    🔹 In a bowl, combine cooked air-fried beef with shredded cheddar, pickle relish, and ketchup.
    🔹 Scoop into tablespoon-sized portions and roll into balls. Chill for 5 minutes for better shape.
  • Bread for Crunch
    🔸 Dredge each ball in flour, dip in beaten egg, then roll in panko breadcrumbs.
  • Final Air Fry
    🔥 Preheat air fryer again to 375°F if needed.
    🔥 Lightly spray bites with olive oil and arrange in basket.
    🔥 Air fry for 8 minutes, flipping halfway until golden and crisp.
