Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, beaten egg, finely diced onion, salt, and pepper. Gently mix until just combined, then shape into 6 to 8 oval patties, about 1 inch thick, and set aside.
- Preheat an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Brown each side of the patties for about 3-4 minutes until golden. Remove and set aside, leaving the drippings in the skillet.
- Reduce heat to medium. Add butter to the skillet. Once melted, add sliced onions and sauté until soft and light golden, about 5 minutes. Stir in flour, cooking for 2 minutes to create a roux. Gradually whisk in beef broth and heavy cream until smooth.
- Nestle the browned hamburger steaks back into the skillet, ensuring they are well coated with gravy. Cover with foil and bake at 350°F for 45 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
- Let the Amish Hamburger Steak Bake rest for about 10 minutes before serving to allow the gravy to thicken and flavors to settle. Serve warm.
