Cheeseburger Flatbread Components
  • 2 large Flatbreads Approx 200g each
  • 1 lb (450g) Lean Ground Beef 90/10 recommended
  • 2 cups (225g) Sharp Yellow Cheddar Freshly shredded
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) Mayonnaise Full fat for best flavor
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) Ketchup
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) Yellow Mustard
  • 2 cups (100g) Iceberg Lettuce Finely shredded

Equipment

Method
 

Preparation and Cooking
  1. In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook ground beef with salt and pepper until deeply browned and savory. Drain fat.
  2. Pre-toast flatbreads in a 425°F (220°C) oven for 2-3 minutes until edges begin to firm.
  3. Top flatbreads with cheddar and beef. Bake 5-7 minutes until cheese is bubbly and edges are slightly charred.
  4. Let rest for 2 minutes. Top with lettuce, pickles, a heavy drizzle of sauce, and sesame seeds.

Notes

Use freshly grated cheese for a better melt.
Don't skip the pre-toast step to ensure a crispy crust.
