- Brush the crust with olive oil and sprinkle sesame seeds for an authentic burger bun taste.
- Slice and serve warm, drizzling extra special sauce on top if desired.
Notes
For a keto version, use a cauliflower crust and sugar-free ketchup in the special sauce. To make it vegetarian, replace ground beef with plant-based crumbles.
