Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces hamburger buns
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- as desired optional toppings (e.g., shredded mozzarella, sliced tomatoes, or fresh basil)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
Slice the hamburger buns in half horizontally to create 8 halves.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter in the microwave for about 20-30 seconds.
To the melted butter, add the garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Using a pastry brush or spoon, evenly spread the flavored butter mixture across the cut side of each hamburger bun half.
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the buttered buns.
Arrange the buns, buttered side up, on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the tops are lightly crisp. For extra crispy toasts, broil for an additional 1-2 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
Optional: Add your desired toppings (e.g., shredded mozzarella, sliced tomatoes, or fresh basil) in the last 2 minutes of baking to warm them slightly.
Remove the hamburger bun toasts from the oven and let them cool for 1-2 minutes before serving. Serve warm and enjoy!
