Vegan Frisco Burger
Ingredients
- 2 Slices Sourdough Bread
- 4 oz Vegan Meat (Impossible, Beyond, See Notes)
- 1 Slice Vegan American Cheese
- Burger Sauce
- Iceberg Lettuce
- Tomato Slices
- Dill Pickle Slices
- Salt & Pepper
Garlic Butter
- 2 Tbsp Vegan Butter
- 2 Tbsp Vegan Parmesan (or 1 Tbsp Nutritional Yeast)
- 1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
Instructions
Burger Sauce
- Prepare the burger sauce by combining everything with a whisk. Store in an air tight container in the fridge until needed.
Parmesan Butter
- Combine the softened vegan butter, parmesan and garlic powder.
Frisco Burger
- Spread a nice, even layer of the parmesan butter on each slice of sourdough bread. Heat a skillet over medium heat for 2 - 3 minutes to preheat.
- Grill each slice of bread until golden brown, set aside on a wire rack so they don't get soggy.
- Add a 4 oz. ball of vegan meat to the skillet and smash it with a burger press or spatula. You can use some parchment paper in between so it doesn't stick. Or form your burger patty with cookie cutter or by hand!
- Grill the burger for 2 - 3 minutes per side. Season with salt and pepper. After flipping, add a slice of vegan American cheese. Add a few squirts of water to the pan, cover and steam to melt the cheese.
- Assemble the burger as follows from bottom to top: bottom bread, burger sauce, pickles, lettuce, tomato, burger patty, more sauce, top bread! If you have some fancy toothpicks use 'em like Marie Callender's did!
Notes
Meat - You can use something like Impossible or Beyond Meat, or you can make my TVP Burger or Veggie Smash Burger (though this will be different, it will still be good!)
