Ingredients
For the Hamburger Steaks:
- 2 lbs ground beef (80/20 blend recommended)
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1/3 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
For the Creamy Sauce:
- 2 tbsp butter
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups beef broth
- 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of mushroom soup
- 1/2 cup heavy cream (or whole milk)
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
For Baking:
- 1 small onion, sliced into rings
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella or Swiss cheese (optional but delicious!)
- Fresh parsley, for garnish

Step-by-Step Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a large baking dish (9×13-inch works perfectly).
- Prepare the patties. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped onion, breadcrumbs, egg, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix just until blended — don’t overwork the meat.
- Shape the mixture into 6–8 oval patties, about 3/4 inch thick. Place them on a parchment-lined tray.
- Brown the patties. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear each patty for about 2–3 minutes per side until nicely browned. (They don’t need to be fully cooked yet.) Transfer them to the prepared baking dish.
- Make the sauce. In the same skillet, melt the butter and whisk in the flour to form a light roux. Cook for 1 minute. Slowly pour in the beef broth while whisking constantly. Add the cream of mushroom soup and heavy cream. Stir until smooth and thickened slightly. Season with onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Assemble the bake. Pour the creamy sauce evenly over the browned patties in the dish. Layer the sliced onions on top, and sprinkle with cheese if using.
- Bake uncovered for about 35–40 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and the patties are fully cooked through (internal temperature should reach 160°F / 70°C).
- Rest and serve. Let the bake rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley for a touch of color.
- Serve suggestions: Enjoy this Amish Hamburger Steak Bake over mashed potatoes, buttered noodles, or even rice — and don’t forget a side of sweet corn or green beans! 🌽
