Introduction
Amish Hamburger Steak Bake is the perfect comfort food dish that brings hearty flavors to the dinner table with simple, everyday ingredients. This classic Amish-inspired recipe takes juicy, seasoned ground beef patties, tops them with onions, and bakes them in a rich, creamy mushroom sauce until everything is tender and bubbling. It’s a wholesome, family-style meal that pairs wonderfully with mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or a side of fresh bread. Best of all, it’s easy to prepare and makes a filling, satisfying supper that everyone will love.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ lbs ground beef
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of mushroom soup
- ½ cup sour cream
- ½ cup milk
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (optional, for topping)
- Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Season the beef with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Shape into 6–8 patties.
- Brown the patties in a skillet over medium heat, about 3–4 minutes per side (they don’t need to cook through fully). Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
- Layer onions over the patties.
- Make the sauce: In a bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, milk, and Worcestershire sauce. Pour evenly over the beef and onions.
- Cover and bake for 30 minutes.
- Uncover, add cheese (if using), and bake another 10–15 minutes, until bubbly and golden.
- Serve warm with mashed potatoes, noodles, or fresh bread. Garnish with parsley if desired.
Storage Method
- Refrigerator: Allow the bake to cool completely, then transfer leftovers to an airtight container. Store in the fridge for up to 3–4 days.
- Freezer: For longer storage, place cooled portions in a freezer-safe container or wrap tightly with foil and plastic wrap. Freeze for up to 2 months.
- Reheating: Reheat individual servings in the microwave until warmed through, or place in a covered baking dish in a 325°F (165°C) oven until hot and bubbly. If reheating from frozen, thaw overnight in the refrigerator before warming.
