Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lbs Ground Beef 80/20 blend
  • 4 oz Feta Cheese, crumbled
  • 1 large Egg
  • 2 tbsp Almond Flour
  • 1 tbsp Dijon Mustard
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper
  • Salt to taste
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • Optional toppings: Avocado slices
  • Optional toppings: Lettuce wraps
  • Optional toppings: Sugar-free ketchup
  • Optional toppings: Bacon

Equipment

  • large mixing bowl
  • Measuring spoons
  • Measuring cups
  • Grill or skillet
  • spatula

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Burger Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, crumbled feta cheese, egg, almond flour, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt.
  2. Mix Gently: Gently mix all ingredients together until just combined. Avoid overmixing, as this can result in a tough burger.
  3. Form the Patties: Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions. Gently form each portion into a patty, about 3/4 inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent them from puffing up during cooking.
  4. Preheat the Grill or Skillet: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, or heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
  5. Cook the Burgers: Place the patties on the preheated grill or in the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
  6. Rest the Burgers: Remove the burgers from the grill or skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful burger.
  7. Assemble and Serve: Serve the burgers on lettuce wraps or with your favorite keto-friendly toppings. Avocado slices, sugar-free ketchup, and bacon are excellent choices.

Notes

For best results, use 80/20 ground beef. Do not overmix the burger mixture. Let the burgers rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute. Experiment with different keto-friendly toppings to customize your burgers.
