Ingredients

  • 16 ounces Plant-based ground beef alternative
  • 1 medium Yellow onion
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 0.5 teaspoons Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
  • 12 pieces Slider buns or dinner rolls
  • 12 pieces Dill pickle slices
  • 6 slices American-style cheese slices (vegetarian)
  • 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
  • 0.25 cup Water

Directions

Step 1

Finely dice the yellow onion and set aside.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the plant-based ground beef alternative with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well-combined.

Step 3

On a piece of parchment or wax paper, press the mixture into a rectangular shape about 1/4 inch thick. Use a knife or pizza cutter to divide into 12 small, square patties. Do not separate them yet.

Step 4

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.

Step 5

Sprinkle half of the diced onions evenly on the skillet/griddle. Carefully place the patties directly on top of the onions, keeping them connected in a single rectangle.

Step 6

Allow the patties to cook for 3-4 minutes, then use a spatula to flip the entire rectangle in one piece. Sprinkle the remaining onions on top and add 1 tablespoon of water to the skillet to create steam. Cover with a lid and cook for another 3 minutes.

Step 7

Place a halved cheese slice on each patty and cover the skillet for 1-2 minutes to let the cheese melt.

Step 8

Separate the patties and place them on the bottom halves of the slider buns. Top each patty with a dill pickle slice and the top half of the bun.

Step 9

Serve warm. Enjoy your vegetarian White Castle sliders!
