How To Make Amish Hamburger Steak Bake:

1. Step 1: Prep & Preheat: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped onion, minced garlic, breadcrumbs, egg, milk, salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix until well combined, being careful not to overmix. Form the mixture into 4-5 oval patties.
2. Step 2: Sear the Patties: In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Sear the hamburger steaks for 2-3 minutes per side, until they are browned. Transfer the patties to a 9×13-inch baking dish.
3. Step 3: Make the Gravy: In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to create a roux. Gradually whisk in the beef broth until smooth. Add the Worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Bring the gravy to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until it has thickened.
4. Step 4: Bake: Pour the gravy over the hamburger steaks in the baking dish. Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the hamburger steaks are cooked through and tender.
5. Step 5: Serve: Serve the Amish Hamburger Steak Bake hot, with plenty of gravy spooned over each steak. This dish pairs perfectly with mashed potatoes, buttered noodles, or a side of vegetables.
