Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 slices dairy-free cheese slices
- 8 slices bacon strips
- 4 hamburger buns
- 4 lettuce leaves
- 1 large tomato
- 1 small red onion
- 0.25 cup dairy-free mayonnaise
- 0.25 cup dairy-free ketchup
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine ground beef with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty slightly larger than the buns.
In a pan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add bacon strips and cook until crispy. Remove and set aside on a paper towel to drain excess fat.
In the same pan, lower heat to medium and cook the beef patties for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they reach desired doneness.
Top each patty with a slice of dairy-free cheese, cover the pan, and allow the cheese to melt, about 2 minutes.
While the patties are cooking, slice the tomato into rounds and the red onion into rings.
Toast the hamburger buns in a toaster or on a skillet until lightly browned.
Spread dairy-free mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun and dairy-free ketchup on the top half.
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom buns, followed by the cheesy patties, crispy bacon, tomato slices, and onion rings.
Close each burger with the top halves of the buns and serve immediately, enjoying the rich, dairy-free flavors.
