**1. Prepare the Burger Filling:**
Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). While the oven heats up, take the ground beef (or your preferred protein) and season it with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. If you want to add extra flavor, mix in finely diced onions or even some chopped spinach for an added twist.
Shape the ground beef into small patties about the size of a tablespoon. Once your patties are formed, heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the patties for 2-3 minutes on each side, just enough to brown them. The inside of the patty doesn’t need to be fully cooked since it will finish cooking in the dough. Once cooked, set the patties aside to cool.
Carefully fold the dough over the burger patty and cheese, pinching the edges together to seal the filling inside. You can twist or pinch the dough as needed to ensure it’s completely sealed. Place each burger bomb seam-side down on a greased baking sheet, leaving some space between each one to allow for expansion during baking.
**3. Prepare the Garlic Parmesan Butter:**
In a small bowl, combine the melted butter with garlic powder and Parmesan cheese. Stir well to combine. Once your burger bombs are assembled and placed on the baking sheet, brush the garlic Parmesan butter generously over the tops of each one. This will give them that irresistible golden-brown, cheesy finish.
**5. Serve and Enjoy:**
Once the burger bombs are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley for an extra pop of color and flavor, if desired. Serve the burger bombs as-is or with your favorite dipping sauces like ketchup, mustard, ranch, or barbecue sauce.
– **Use Fresh Herbs:** For an added burst of flavor, try adding fresh herbs like basil, thyme, or oregano to the garlic Parmesan butter. Fresh herbs will elevate the flavor of the burger bombs and complement the garlic and cheese.
– **Add Bacon:** For an extra indulgent touch, crumble cooked bacon into the burger patty mixture or place a few pieces inside the burger bomb for a smoky, crispy addition.
– **Experiment with Cheeses:** While mozzarella is a great melting cheese, you can experiment with other cheeses like cheddar, Swiss, provolone, or pepper jack to add a different flavor profile to your burger bombs.
