Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2.5-3 lb turkey breast roast boneless and frozen

Instructions
 

  • Preheat Air Fryer to 350 F for 5 minutes
  • Remove the frozen turkey roast from the bag and remove all of its packaging. Wrap the turkey roast in aluminum foil.
  • Place turkey breast skin down in the air fryer. Cook at 350 F for 1 hour, removing the foil after 45 minutes.
  • Flip the turkey roast over and continue cooking in foil for 30-45 minutes, or until the internal turkey temperature reaches 160 F with a meat thermometer. Frozen boneless turkey roasts can be a little finicky, the main thing is to cook it until it reaches 160 F.
  • Let rest for 15 minutes before serving, the boneless roast will continue cooking and should be at 170 F. Enjoy! Serve with all of your favorite holiday sides!

Notes

  • This recipe is based on using a 2-3 lb frozen turkey breast roast like a Butterball boneless turkey roast that comes in a box.
  • Foil is crucial to cooking this frozen turkey in air fryer. Frozen turkey breast roasts often have a browning agent on them, so if you don't cover them the outside will brown too quickly.
  • Flipping the roast, as well as using a meat thermometer is essential for this recipe. Especially since we are cooking from frozen. Even if the outside seems cooked, you want to use the meat thermometer to ensure that the turkey roast is cooked through.
  • If you have a frozen boneless turkey breast, you can still follow this recipe but we have not personally tested this with a raw frozen turkey breast. This recipe is for a pre-seasoned turkey breast roast. If you have a raw frozen boneless turkey breast you can season it with our air fryer turkey breast seasoning and follow the instructions. Please use an inexpensive meat thermometer so you know when the turkey is done cooking.
