Amish Hamburger Steak Bake is a hearty, cheesy casserole with layers of potatoes, seasoned beef, and creamy cheese sauce—perfect for family dinners or meal prep.
Ingredients
- 1½ lbs ground beef
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper
- 2 cups milk
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 4-5 medium russet potatoes
- 1 medium onion
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Cook the beef: Brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat. Drain excess fat, then season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Make the cheese sauce: Whisk 1 ½ cups of milk with flour in a saucepan until smooth. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in cheddar cheese until melted.
- Assemble the casserole: Layer half of the sliced potatoes, ground beef, and onions in the baking dish. Pour half of the cheese sauce over the layers. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
- Add the final touch: Pour the remaining ½ cup of milk over the top.
- Bake: Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Uncover and bake for another 15-20 minutes until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden brown.
- Serve: Let it rest for 5-10 minutes. Garnish with parsley, sour cream, or green onions.
