    These Gluten Free Burgers are tender and seasoned to perfection! This gluten free burger recipe can be whipped up in under 30 minutes. We love eating these burgers all year round and in the summertime-cooking them on the grill. You can top these juicy burgers off with a fluffy gluten free bun or eat it business, on a bed of lettuce too! This recipe is so versatile and delicious!

    This recipe is a huge hit in my house! It is a great option to make in bulk and freeze the burgers so you have them on hand whenever you are in a pinch for a quick dinner. I love making these burgers for summer cookouts with my Gluten Free Pasta Salad, Gluten Free Potato Salad, and Gluten Free Coleslaw. If you like to change up things from your typical burgers, I like using my Red Chimichurri Sauce on top of this burger. It adds a nice kick! I even love adding Roasted Tomatoes on top too!

    Why You Will Love This Recipe

    • These homemade burger patties require less than 10 minutes of hands on time which means they make for a great dinner option when you need something in a rush.
    • This recipe can be grilled, air fried or baked in the oven.
    • We love making these gluten free homemade burger patties in bulk and freezing them in the freezer so we have a nice stash of burgers on hand at all times. 
    • This recipe is naturally Whole30 friendly, gluten free, grain free, dairy free, flourless, paleo, soy free, and refined sugar free. This recipe can also be made keto friendly by putting the burgers on a bed of lettuce instead of a bun.
    • These gluten free burgers pair so well with my favorite Crispy mini potatoes with paleo garlic aioli and Gluten Free Potato Salad.

    Ingredients

    Gluten free burger ingredients in glass bowls.
    • Grass Fed ground beef- I love getting my beef from Butcher Box. They have the best quality stuff – all grass fed- and it gets shipped directly to your door. If you use my Butcher Box link you can get free meat with every order!
    • Dairy free cream cheese- I used chive cream cheese, for extra flavor! Kite Hill is my favorite dairy free brand. Cream cheese will help keep your patties moist. If you are not dairy sensitive like me you can use regular cream cheese. 
    • Cassava flour & Egg yolk- Work together to bind all ingredients. I only use Otto’s cassava flour because I have found it works best! Not all cassava flour brands are created equally so if you do use cassava flour, make sure it is Otto’s Cassava Flour! Any kind of gluten free flour can work.
    • Coconut aminos- My go-to soy sauce alternative. It is soy free and gluten free. It tastes just like soy sauce. I get all of my coconut aminos from Thrive Market, is you use my Thrive Market link you can save on your first order!
    • Garlic powder & onion powder- The best seasonings for a ground beef burger patty. 
    • Sea salt & black pepper- As desired.

    See the recipe card below for a full list of ingredients and measurements.

    Substitutions and Variations

    • You can substitute the ground beef for your preferred meat of choice.
    • Add additional spices to change the flavor profile.

    Form the meat into 1/3 – pound patties, about 1-1.5 inches thick. Use your thumb to make an indent in the center of each patty. This will prevent them from puffing up while cooking.

    Different cooking methods: -Air fryer: Place on the air frying rack in the air fryer at 365 degrees F for 7 minutes on each side or until the burger reaches 165 degrees F. – Grill: Heat your grill to medium heat. Cook the burgers for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F. – Oven: If you are cooking burgers in the oven, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Cook burgers 6-7 minutes on each side on a parchment lined sheet or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F.

    Finally, top with your favorite toppings and serve on a gluten free bun!

    Equipment

    • Mixing bowls
    • Measuring cups and spoons
    • Baking sheet
    • Meat thermometer

    Expert Tips

    • Tip # 1: Indenting your thumb in the center of the raw burger patties will help the burger hold its shape – rather than swelling up.
    • Tip # 2: If grilling outside, it is good to keep a glass of water near by in case you get flames from the beef fat dripping.
    • Tip # 3: If you choose to use a different type of meat it will impact your cook time.

    Recipe FAQ’s

    Can I Freeze Leftover Patties?

    Yes. Store them cooked in an airtight container, layered with parchment paper (for easy remove of the patties). Defrost in the fridge overnight and reheat on the grill, oven, or air fryer. You can also cook directly fro frozen, it will just take longer on each side and not be as juicy.

    How Can I Reheat?

    To reheat in the air fryer, reheat in the air fryer at 350 degrees F for 5-10 minutes. To reheat in the oven, reheat at 350 degrees F for 5-10 minutes. To reheat on the grill, reheat on medium heat for 3 minutes on each side.

    What Can I Serve These With?

    There are so many possibilities! I love making these homemade burger patties for a nice summer picnic with Whole30 Deviled Eggs, Air Fryer Potato Skins, Arugula Pear Salad, and my go-to Strawberry Poppyseed Salad.

    What are the best pre-made gluten free burger patties?

    If you do not feel like making your own homemade patties, I do love Butcher Box’s frozen burger patties. They are delicious and easy to make! I cook mine frozen in the air fryer with a little bit of salt and pepper at 350 degrees F for 10 minutes on each side. If you use my Butcher Box link you can save on your order every month.
