Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 small head cabbage, cut into thick slices
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil for brushing
  • 1 pound ground beef, turkey, chicken, or plant-based alternative
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 large egg, optional for binding
  • 1 cup cheese for sprinkling on top

Instructions

1. 1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F.

2. 2. Prepare the Cabbage: Brush the cabbage slices with olive oil and place them on a baking sheet.

3. 3. Mix the Meat: In a mixing bowl, combine the ground meat, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, smoked paprika, Worcestershire sauce, and egg (if using).

4. 4. Form the Patties: Shape the meat mixture into patties that are sized to match the cabbage slices.

5. 5. Assemble: Place each meat patty on a cabbage slice. Top with cheese if desired.

6. 6. Bake: Bake the cabbage burgers in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until the meat is fully cooked and the cheese is melted.

Notes

To ensure your Oven-Baked Cabbage Burgers turn out perfectly every time, consider these helpful tips:

Choosing the Right Cabbage: While any variety of cabbage will work, opt for a small, firm head with tight, crisp leaves.

Achieving the Ideal Meat Mixture: Aim for a meat mixture that’s not too dry or too wet. If too loose, try adding an extra egg or breadcrumbs.

Cheese Topping Options: Experiment with cheddar, Swiss, Monterey Jack, provolone, mozzarella, or crumbled feta.

Egg-Free Binding Alternatives: Substitute eggs with unsweetened applesauce, mashed banana, or ground flaxseed mixed with water.
