Turkey Meatloaf Burgers

A meatloaf style turkey burger that's moist and flavorful. My kids love these burgers and don't realize it's a lighter alternative to beef burger. My kids just slap on some mayo and head to town. Great served with lettuce, tomato, and your choice of condiments, with a side of chips or raw crispy veggies.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • 2 pounds ground turkey

  • 1 ⅓ cups seasoned bread crumbs

  • 1 small onion - grated, and juice drained

  • 2 eggs

  • 3 tablespoons applesauce

  • 2 teaspoons chili powder

  • 1 teaspoon paprika

  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 8 hamburger buns, split

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  2. Mix the turkey, bread crumbs, onion, eggs, applesauce, chili powder, paprika, and kosher salt in a large bowl until thoroughly combined. Divide mixture into 8 equal portions, then shape into patties.

  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Arrange the patties in the skillet and cook until browned, 3 to 5 minutes on each side. Place the browned patties on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Transfer the patties to a 9x13-inch baking dish.

  4. Bake the turkey burgers in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Serve the turkey burgers on the hamburger buns.
