Cheeseburger Pizza
Love pizza? Love burgers? This recipe is the best of both worlds. Topped with seasoned ground beef, melty cheddar, and classic burger fixings, cheeseburger pizza brings the full burger experience to every handheld slice.
Ingredients
- Ground beef – Use any kind, but lean beef is best to avoid excess grease.
- Prebaked pizza crust – A great shortcut for quick pizza nights.
- Ketchup and mustard – A tangy, sweet combo that makes the perfect burger-style base sauce.
- Cheddar cheese – Sharp cheddar melts beautifully and adds bold flavor.
- Shredded lettuce, sliced pickles, and chopped onion – Classic cheeseburger toppings.
- Mayonnaise + pickle juice – For a creamy drizzle to finish it off.
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until fully browned (about 3–4 minutes). Break it into crumbles and drain off the excess fat.
- Place the prebaked pizza crust on an ungreased pizza pan or baking sheet.
- Mix together ketchup and mustard, then spread evenly over the crust.
- Top with the cooked ground beef.
- Bake for 5 minutes.
- Sprinkle a generous layer of cheddar cheese over the pizza.
- Return to the oven and bake for another 8–10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the crust is golden brown.
- Top the baked pizza with shredded lettuce, pickles, and onions.
- Whisk mayonnaise with pickle juice and drizzle over the top for that signature cheeseburger flavor.
- Slice and serve hot! This fun, flavorful twist on a cheeseburger is perfect for parties, weeknight dinners, or game day.
- Pro Tip from Foodicious Recipes
For extra flavor and texture, lightly toast the prebaked crust before adding any toppings. This creates a crispier base that holds up better under juicy beef and melted cheese — no soggy slices!
