Ah, an Avocado Burger 🥑🍔—creamy avocado meets juicy beef for a fresh twist on a classic burger. Here’s a full recipe:
🍔 Avocado Burger
Ingredients (per 2–3 servings)
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20 for juicy burgers)
- Salt & pepper
- 2 burger buns (toasted optional)
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1–2 tsp lime juice
- 2 slices cheese (optional: pepper jack, cheddar, or Swiss)
- Toppings: lettuce, tomato, red onion, pickles, or your favorite sauce
Instructions
- Prep avocado
- Mash avocado in a small bowl with lime juice, salt, and pepper.
- Form patties
- Shape beef into patties slightly larger than buns.
- Season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Cook patties
Skillet or grill:- Heat over medium-high heat, cook 3–4 min per side for medium, adjusting for desired doneness.
- Add cheese during the last minute if using.
- Toast buns (optional)
- Spread butter on buns and toast lightly on skillet or grill.
- Assemble burger
- Bottom bun → lettuce (optional) → patty → mashed avocado → tomato, onion, pickles → top bun.
🔥 Tips & Variations
- Creamy spread: mix avocado with mayo or Greek yogurt for extra creaminess.
- Spicy: add sliced jalapeños or a dash of sriracha to the avocado.
- Crunch: top with crispy bacon or fried onions.
- Veggie burger option: substitute beef with black bean or chickpea patty, still topped with avocado.
I can also give a restaurant-style Avocado Burger recipe with a perfectly juicy patty, sliced fresh avocado, and a zesty lime-cilantro sauce for maximum flavor.
