How to make Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs
Making these bombs is easier than you think. With just a few ingredients and simple steps, you can create a meal or snack that feels special. Let’s dive into what you need and how to prepare it!
Ingredients :
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Directions :
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon. Drain excess fat if necessary.
- Stir in Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
- Open the biscuit dough and separate the biscuits. Flatten each biscuit into a round disc using your fingers or a rolling pin.
- Place a spoonful of the cooked beef mixture into the center of each biscuit, then top with a generous amount of shredded cheddar cheese.
- Carefully fold the edges of the biscuit over the filling, pinching the dough together to seal the cheeseburger bomb.
- Place the sealed bombs seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, grated Parmesan cheese, and garlic powder. Brush this mixture over the top of each cheeseburger bomb.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the biscuit dough is golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
How to serve Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs
These bombs are best served warm and fresh out of the oven. You can enjoy them by themselves or dip them in your favorite sauces like ketchup or barbecue sauce. They make a fantastic appetizer or snack for any occasion!
How to store Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs
If you have any leftovers (doubtful, but just in case!), store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. To reheat, pop them in the oven for a few minutes to get the biscuit soft again.
Tips to make Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs
- Make sure not to overfill the biscuits, or they might burst while baking.
- You can add other ingredients like diced pickles or bacon bits for extra flavor!
- Always keep an eye on them while baking to avoid over-browning.
Variation (if any)
Feel free to switch up the cheese. Instead of cheddar, try mozzarella or pepper jack for a spicy kick! You can also use different meats, like ground turkey or chicken, to make it lighter.
