Ah! Keto Cheeseburger Garbage Bread—basically all the indulgent flavors of a cheeseburger stuffed into a low-carb, cheesy bread loaf. 🍔🧀 Perfect for keto comfort food. Here’s a step-by-step recipe:

Keto Cheeseburger Garbage Bread

Servings: 6–8 | Prep Time: 15 min | Cook Time: 25–30 min

Ingredients

For the Filling:

• 1 lb (450g) ground beef

• 1 small onion, diced

• 1/2 cup diced bell peppers (optional)

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 tsp mustard

• 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce (optional, check for low-carb)

• Salt and pepper, to taste

• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or a mix of cheddar & mozzarella)

• 2–3 dill pickles, diced (optional, for burger flavor)

For the Bread (Keto “Crust”):

• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

• 2 oz cream cheese

• 1 1/2 cups almond flour

• 1 tsp baking powder

• 2 large eggs

Optional Toppings:

• Extra shredded cheese

• Sesame seeds

• Sugar-free ketchup or mustard drizzle

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven:

   • 375°F (190°C).

   • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Cook the Filling:

   • In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef until browned.

   • Add onion, bell pepper, and garlic; cook until softened.

   • Stir in mustard, Worcestershire, pickles, salt, and pepper.

   • Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

   • Stir in 1 cup shredded cheese.

3. Make Keto Bread Dough:

   • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt mozzarella and cream cheese together until smooth.

   • Mix in almond flour, baking powder, and eggs until a sticky dough forms.

4. Assemble Garbage Bread:

   • On a parchment-lined sheet, spread half of the dough into a rough rectangle.

   • Spoon the cheeseburger filling over the dough.

   • Top with the remaining dough, gently pressing to seal edges (it’s okay if some filling peeks out—it adds character!).

5. Bake:

   • Bake 20–25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

   • Optional: sprinkle extra cheese or sesame seeds on top halfway through baking.

6. Serve:

   • Let cool 5 minutes before slicing.

   • Serve with sugar-free ketchup, mustard, or a side salad.

✨ Chef’s Tips:

• For a more melty, gooey bread, brush the top with melted butter before baking.

• Can swap beef for ground turkey or sausage for variation.

• Keep leftovers in the fridge for 3–4 days or freeze for later—reheat in the oven to keep crust crispy.

If you want, I can also make a “fully loaded” version with bacon, pickles, and cheese sauce baked inside that really tastes like a cheeseburger in every bite.
