Gluten-Free Cheeseburgers

These gluten-free cheeseburgers are a delicious twist on a classic American midnight snack, featuring juicy beef patties topped with melted cheese and fresh toppings. Perfectly seasoned and served on gluten-free buns, they promise a satisfying bite every time.

Ingredients

• Ground beef (80% lean) - 250 grams
• Gluten-free breadcrumbs - 30 grams
• Egg - 1 large
• Dijon mustard - 1 tablespoon
• Garlic powder - 1 teaspoon
• Onion powder - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Cheddar cheese slices - 2 slices
• Gluten-free hamburger buns - 2
• Lettuce leaves - 2
• Tomato - 1 medium, sliced
• Pickles - 4 slices
• Ketchup - 2 tablespoons

Steps

1. In a bowl, combine the ground beef, gluten-free breadcrumbs, egg, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined.
2. Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into patties.
3. Preheat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
4. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover to melt.
5. Toast the gluten-free buns lightly on the grill or in a toaster.
6. Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by the cheesy patty, slices of tomato, pickles, and a drizzle of ketchup and mustard.
7. Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately.
