Delight in the fusion of flavors with these Pizza Burgers! Juicy beef patties topped with melty mozzarella, zesty marinara, and optional pepperoni, all served on toasted buns. A fun twist on traditional burgers that pizza lovers will adore!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 cup marinara sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 4 slices mozzarella cheese
  • 4 hamburger buns
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Pepperoni slices (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons butter, softened
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mix the ground beef, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Form into 4 burger patties.
  • Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat and cook the patties for 4-5 minutes per side or until desired doneness.
  • During the last minute of cooking, top each burger with a slice of mozzarella and cover to melt the cheese.
  • Spread softened butter on the inside of the buns and toast them on a skillet until golden.
  • Spread marinara sauce on the bottom half of each bun, place the burger patty on top, then sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and add pepperoni slices if desired.
  • Top with the other half of the bun and serve hot.

Notes

  • Customize with your favorite toppings, such as fresh basil or olives.
  • For a lower-carb option, serve without the bun.
