Mini Tater Tot Cheeseburgers – Page 2

Bake or Air-Fry Tater Tots: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) or set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Place tater tots on a baking sheet or in the air fryer basket and cook according to package instructions, usually 20 minutes for baking or 15 minutes for air-frying. Tater tots should be golden and crispy.
Set Aside: Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly. These will serve as the “buns” for your mini cheeseburgers.

Season the Beef: In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix thoroughly to ensure even seasoning throughout.
Form Small Patties: Divide the seasoned beef mixture into 12 small patties, each about 1-1.5 inches in diameter, similar in size to the tater tots.
Cook the Patties: Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Cook each mini patty for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until it reaches your preferred level of doneness. During the last minute of cooking, top each patty with a small amount of shredded cheese or a mini cheese slice to let it melt over the patty.

Arrange the Tater Tot Base: Place one crispy tater tot on a serving tray to act as the bottom “bun” for each cheeseburger.
Add the Mini Burger Patty: Place a cheesy mini burger patty on top of each tater tot.
Add Garnishes: Add a piece of lettuce (optional) and a halved cherry tomato or pickle slice to each burger.
Top with a Second Tater Tot: Place another tater tot on top to act as the “top bun.”
Secure with a Toothpick: Insert a toothpick through the center of each mini burger to keep all layers together.

Arrange these bite-sized cheeseburgers on a serving tray with small dishes of ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise for dipping.
Garnish the tray with extra lettuce and cherry tomatoes for added color.
These mini cheeseburgers pair well with other party snacks like fries, onion rings, or a veggie platter.
