Instructions
-
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it. -
Cook the Ground Beef:
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula. Drain any excess grease to prevent sogginess. -
Add Pizza Sauce & Seasoning:
Stir in the pizza sauce and Italian seasoning, mixing until the beef is evenly coated. Season with salt and pepper to taste. -
Assemble the Pizza Burgers:
Place the halved hamburger buns cut side up on the prepared baking sheet. Spoon the pizza beef mixture evenly over each bun half. Top with a generous amount of shredded cheddar cheese. -
Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the bun edges are slightly crisp. -
Serve:
Let the pizza burgers cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm.
