Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 1 tube refrigerated biscuits (Pillsbury Grands!™ or similar)
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Salt, pepper, garlic powder to taste
- Optional: ketchup, mustard, pickles
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with parchment paper.
- In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook ground beef with diced onion until browned and onions are soft. Drain excess fat.
- Lower heat, season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Stir in shredded cheddar cheese until melted. Let cool slightly.
- Flatten each biscuit into a 4–5 inch circle and place into the muffin tin, pressing gently into the bottom and up the sides.
- Spoon 1–2 tablespoons of the beef mixture into the center of each biscuit.
- Gather the edges of the biscuit dough up and over the filling, pinching them together at the top to seal.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, until golden brown and puffed.
- Let rest in the pan for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Bacon Cheeseburger: Add ½ cup cooked crumbled bacon to the filling.
- Pizza Style: Use Italian sausage or pepperoni, mozzarella cheese, and a spoonful of marinara sauce.
- BBQ Cheddar: Swap ketchup for BBQ sauce and use a blend of cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese.
- Turkey & Swiss: Use ground turkey and Swiss cheese for a lighter option. Add a pinch of thyme.
- Spicy Southwest: Add a diced jalapeño (seeds removed), pepper Jack cheese, and a dash of cumin to the filling.
