Useful Tips:
- For juicier burgers, choose ground beef with a fat content between 10% and 15%.
- If you prefer, you can season the ground meat with other spices of your choice, such as cumin, oregano or Calabrian pepper.
- For a vegan version of the burger, replace the ground beef with cooked and mashed lentils, cooked and processed chickpeas, or a store-bought plant-based burger.
- You can use leftover cooked pumpkin puree to make this recipe.
- If the pumpkin bread dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time, until it is ready.
- You can brush the pumpkin bread with a little olive oil before baking to make it golden brown on top.
The Origin of the Recipe
This recipe was born from the desire to create a homemade burger that was both tasty and nutritious, and that didn't come with the traditional white bun.
The idea of using pumpkin came about due to its versatility, natural sweetness and richness in fibers.
The result was this Homemade Beef Burger with Salad on Pumpkin Bread, an explosion of textures and flavors that will certainly surprise you!
Finishing with a pinch of inspiration…
May your day be as light as lettuce, as tasty as a hamburger and as nutritious as pumpkin! Enjoy your meal!
