Ingredients

• 1 lb Ground beef (80% lean)
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened almond milk
• 1 large Onion, finely chopped
• 1 tsp Garlic powder
• 1 tsp Onion powder
• 1 tsp Kosher salt
• 0.5 tsp Ground black pepper
• 12 pieces Slider-sized dairy-free sandwich buns
• 12 pieces Dill pickle slices
• 2 tbsp Neutral cooking oil (e.g., avocado or canola oil)
• 1 sheet Parchment paper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, unsweetened almond milk, garlic powder, onion powder, kosher salt, and ground black pepper. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly incorporated.

Step 3

Line a 9x13 inch baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the beef mixture evenly onto the sheet, pressing it flat to form a thin, even layer. Use a spatula to ensure the meat reaches all edges.

Step 4

Bake the beef in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. It should cook through and shrink slightly.

Step 5

While the beef cooks, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the neutral cooking oil and chopped onions. Sauté the onions for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 6

Once the beef is cooked, remove it from the oven and carefully drain any excess grease. Using a knife or pizza cutter, divide the beef into 12 evenly-sized squares.

Step 7

To assemble the sliders, place a square of cooked beef onto the bottom half of each dairy-free bun. Top each with a spoonful of caramelized onions and a dill pickle slice. Cover with the top half of the bun.

Step 8

If desired, warm the assembled sliders in the oven at 325°F (165°C) for 3-5 minutes before serving to ensure everything is heated through.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy your dairy-free White Castle sliders!
