Amish Hamburger Steak Bake (Print-Friendly Recipe)

Tender hamburger steaks baked in savory gravy, perfect with mashed potatoes for a classic comfort meal.

# Ingredients List:

→ Hamburger Steaks

01 - 2 pounds ground beef (80/20 blend preferred)
02 - 0.5 cup plain or seasoned breadcrumbs
03 - 1 large egg, beaten
04 - 1 medium onion, finely diced
05 - 2 teaspoons salt
06 - 1 teaspoon ground black pepper

→ Creamy Gravy

07 - 3 tablespoons butter (salted or unsalted)
08 - 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
09 - 2 cups low-sodium beef broth
10 - 1 cup heavy cream
11 - 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
12 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder

# How to Make It:

01 - In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, beaten egg, diced onion, salt, and black pepper until just incorporated.
02 - Divide mixture and gently shape into 6 to 8 oval-shaped steaks. Let patties rest while preparing the gravy.
03 - Preheat oven to 350°F. In an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat, sear patties 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown; remove and set aside.
04 - In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add sliced onion and sauté until softened, about 4 minutes.
05 - Sprinkle flour over onions and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Gradually whisk in beef broth, followed by heavy cream and garlic powder, whisking until smooth.
06 - Arrange browned patties in the gravy, ensuring steaks are partially submerged.
07 - Cover skillet tightly and bake at 350°F for 45 minutes. Uncover and bake an additional 15 minutes for a golden top.
08 - Remove from oven and allow to rest 10 minutes before serving to retain juiciness.

# Extra Information:

01 - Use a meat thermometer to ensure steaks reach at least 160°F for food safety.
