Amish Hamburger Steak Bake
Amish Hamburger Steak Bake is a comforting, old-fashioned casserole made from seasoned ground-beef “steaks” (patties) baked in a creamy mushroom gravy. It’s hearty, simple to prepare, and traditionally served with mashed potatoes or rice to soak up the rich sauce.
Ingredients
- 2 lbs Ground beef 80/20 blend for best flavor
- 1/2 cup Breadcrumbs Plain or seasoned
- 1 Egg Beaten
- 1 Onion Finely diced
- 2 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 3 tbsp Butter Salted or unsalted
- 3 tbsp All-purpose flour For thickening gravy
- 2 cups Beef broth Low sodium preferred
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 Onion Sliced
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
Instructions
- In a large bowl, gently mix the ground beef, breadcrumbs, beaten egg, diced onion, salt, and pepper.
- Form the mixture into 6–8 oval-shaped patties. Let them rest while you prepare the gravy.
- Brown the patties in an oven-safe skillet for 3–4 minutes on each side until they are golden. Once done, remove them from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, sauté the sliced onions in butter. Add the flour and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Gradually whisk in the beef broth and cream until combined.
- Nestle the browned patties into the gravy. Cover the skillet tightly and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 45 minutes. After that, uncover the skillet and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
- Once done, remove from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.
