My little invention for people who crave cheeseburgers but want to stay away from fast food. I like to freeze them, then reheat as needed. They also work well as appetizers.

I’m someone who loves a good cheeseburger but tries to avoid fast food as much as possible. I figured out a great way to indulge my burger cravings without resorting to poor nutritional choices: by creating my own cheeseburger mini muffins at home!
These adorable little bites are made with wholesome, simple ingredients that you likely already have on hand. The recipe is easy to follow, and the end result is a muffin that tastes like your favorite burger but is so much better for you. They are also versatile; you can choose to enjoy them warm for a comforting meal or pack them in lunches for a satisfying snack on the go.
Step-by-step
- Cook ground beef with finely chopped onion in a skillet over medium heat until beef is no longer pink. Drain.
- Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
- Combine ketchup, milk, butter, eggs, and mustard in another bowl. Mix with dry ingredients until just moistened.
- Stir in ground beef and cheese.
- Fill mini muffin cups 3/4th full.
- Bake at 425°F for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool for 5 minutes before removing muffins to wire racks to cool further.
- Serve warm. Refrigerate leftovers.
