Healthy Air Fryer Turkey Burgers with Avocado Ranch

• 1 pound ground turkey
• 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
• 1 large egg
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 ripe avocado
• 1/2 cup ranch dressing
• 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
• 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
• 4 whole grain burger buns
• Assorted toppings: lettuce, tomato slices, red onion rings

1. In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
2. Mix the ingredients until they are just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat to keep the burgers tender.
3. Divide the turkey mixture into four equal portions and shape each into a patty, about 3/4 inch thick.
4. Preheat the air fryer to 360°F (182°C) if necessary.
5. Place the patties in the air fryer basket, ensuring they do not touch or overlap.
6. Cook the turkey burgers in the air fryer for about 8-10 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 7-9 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the exterior is golden and slightly crisp.
7. While the burgers cook, mash the ripe avocado in a small bowl.
8. Add the ranch dressing, fresh lime juice, and chili powder to the mashed avocado, stirring to combine into a creamy avocado ranch sauce.
9. Toast the whole grain burger buns if desired, either in a toaster or quickly in the air fryer if it has a toast function.
10. Assemble the burgers by placing a turkey patty on each bottom bun.
11. Top each patty with a generous spoonful of the avocado ranch sauce.
12. Add assorted toppings such as lettuce leaves, tomato slices, and red onion rings according to preference.
13. Cap each burger with the top half of the whole grain buns.
