Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20 blend)
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs (or ground oats/crushed gluten-free crackers for gluten-free option)
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • Optional: 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or choice)

Instructions

  1. Prepare your ingredients: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, onion powder, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined to avoid dense patties.
  2. Form the patties: Divide the meat mixture into equal portions and shape each into round, slightly thick patties. Place the patties on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
  3. Bake the burgers: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15 minutes. If adding cheese, sprinkle it on top of each patty after 12 minutes and continue baking until the cheese melts and the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
  4. Rest and assemble: Remove the hamburgers from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes to allow the juices to redistribute. Serve hot with your favorite buns and toppings.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the meat to keep burgers tender.
  • Ensure patties are uniform in thickness for even cooking.
  • Use a meat thermometer to confirm an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
  • Allow patties to rest before serving to retain juiciness.
  • Adjust seasonings in small batches to customize flavor.
