How To Melt Cheese For A Cheeseburger?

All it takes is two ice cubes and a lid to help the cheese melt perfectly and hug the sides the the cheeseburger in a way you have never seen before. First, grate some cheddar cheese or any cheese of your liking. Grated cheese melts quicker and more evenly then slices of cheese.

After you top the burgers with some cheese, add two ice cubes to the pan and cover with a lid or sheet pan. This amazes people every time I do it! The steam not only helps melt the cheese but it adds some moisture to the burgers.

Allow the smash burgers to cook 1 minute after putting the cheese on and then take the lid off. You will see the most beautifully melted cheese ever.

How Do I is Make Make A Keto Hamburger Bun ?

The easiest way to make a low carb keto hamburger bun is by making cloud bread. You only need two ingredients to make cloud bread, cream cheese and eggs. Make sure the cream cheese is room temperature and that it is full fat.

Beat the egg whites until they are very stiff peaks. If you are not sure what that looks like, watch the video in this post. I add 1/4 teaspoon of cream of tartar to the egg whites, that helps make them more stuff, but it’s optional if you don’t have it.

Beat the egg yolks with the cream cheese and then fold in the egg whites. More sure to gently fold, don’t mix, as you want the air bubbles to stay inflated. Use a 1/2 cup measuring cup to pour the batter on to parchment paper lined sheet trays, form a bun size, and bake in the oven for 30 minutes.
