Added 2025-03-27 16:41:53 +0000 UTC25g butter
2 medium bananas
4tbsp light brown sugar
900g ground beef (80/20)
2tsp salt
1tsp black pepper
8 slices smoked streaky bacon, cooked until crispy
4 brioche buns
8 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
8 slices cheese (cheddar or American)
Method
Make the Caramelised Bananas
Peel the bananas and cut each in half, then slice each piece lengthwise to make 8 pieces in total. Heat a large nonstick pan over medium heat and melt the butter. Add the bananas and sprinkle with brown sugar. Cook for 5 minutes turning gently until nicelycaramelised, then remove from the heat and set aside.
Grill the Burgers
Shape the ground beef into 8 equal patties. Season both sides with salt and black pepper. Preheat a grill or pan to medium-high heat and cook the patties for 3 to 4 minutes per side, depending on your preferred doneness. In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheese on each patty and let it melt. If toasting the buns, grill the cut sides for about 20 seconds until slightly charred.
Assemble the Burgers
Spread 1 tablespoon of peanut butter on the bottom of each toasted bun. Place one cheeseburger patty on top, followed by a couple of slices of crispy bacon, another cheeseburger patty and finish with a caramelised banana piece. Then spread another tablespoon of peanut butter on the top bun before placing on top of the burger.
This Elvis Burger isn’t just fit for a King, it’s fit for The King.
