Method
Prep the patties
Take the 6 veg patties out of the freezer and let them sit at room temperature for 5 minutes. Taking the deep chill off means they heat through evenly rather than staying icy in the middle.
Air fry the patties
Place the patties in the basket in a single layer and air-fry at 180°C for 8 min, flipping once halfway. Leaving space between them lets the hot air crisp all sides rather than steaming them.
Toast the buns
Split the slider buns and toast them cut-side up in the air fryer at 180°C for 2 min until light golden. Toasting the cut face builds a barrier that stops the buns going soggy under the filling.
Build the sliders
Layer lettuce, a patty, and a cheese slice on each bottom bun, then close it with the top bun. Putting the lettuce down first keeps the bun from getting damp under the hot patty.
Melt and serve
Return the assembled sliders to the basket and air-fry at 180°C for 3 min until the cheese melts and the buns turn crisp on top. Serve them straight away while everything is hot and gooey.
