Difficulty Level: Moderate
Ingredients:
For the burger buns:
- ⅓ cup water, lukewarm
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp dry yeast
- 3 tbsp milk, room temperature
- 2 cups flour
- 1 egg
- ¼ stick butter, room temperature
- 1 tsp salt
- black sesame seeds to sprinkle on top
For the quiche:
- 3 eggs, room temperature
- 1¼ cups heavy cream
- 8 oz bacon, diced
- 1 red onion, diced
- 2 tbsp chopped chives
For the burgers:
- 1 lb ground beef
- 8 oz cheddar cheese, cubed
- romaine lettuce
- tomato relish
- sour cream & chives dip
Instructions:
1. For the burger bun dough, combine the lukewarm water, honey, and dry yeast, add it to a bowl along with the room temperature milk, mix well, and let sit for 10 minutes. Add the flour, egg, butter, and salt to the yeast mixture and knead for 12-15 minutes until a smooth dough forms. Cover the dough ball and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour. After 1 hour, roll the dough ball out onto a floured work surface, run a rolling pin over it to release air bubbles, and then shape it back into a ball. Place the dough ball on a baking tray and cut out a circle with a 4-inch pastry ring. Slightly flatten the piece of dough you cut out and then use a 3.5-inch pastry ring to cut out the center of it. Place the cut-out piece next to the other 2 pieces and flatten it. Let all 3 dough pieces rise at room temperature for 30 minutes.
3. Combine the ground beef and cubed cheddar cheese. Form 2 hamburger patties from the mixture and cook them on both sides in a pan over medium heat to desired doneness.
4. Assemble your cheesy quiche burger and enjoy!
