Spicy Peanut Butter Burgers



I made these like three times and I love them! My parents decided to go to the bar for the football game with the rest of the family but I am resting because I do not feel well and I want to rest for my first day of student teaching.

Ingredients

1 1/2 lbs. ground beef or turkey
1/2 cup the Heat Is On peanut butter
2 tbs. unsalted butter
1 yellow onion, grated
1 large egg
3 tbs. bread crumbs
olive oil, for the pan

Directions

1. In a large bowl, combine the ground meat, peanut butter, butter, onion, egg, and bread crumbs and knead with your hands until well combined

2. Make patties about 4 inches wide and 3/4 inch thick. refrigerate 1 - 2 hours to allow the patties to set and the flavors to meld.

3. Grill the burgers on an outdoor grill for best results, or fry in a skillet with a small amount of olive oil for 2 - 3 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked inside.
