Blue Cheese & Cranberry Baked Turkey Burgers – Low Carb, Keto, Gluten-Free, Grain-Free, THM S
We have loved this combination for years. I originally made it according to a recipe from the Make It Fast Cook It Slow crockpot cookbook. After the first try, we knew we loved the flavor but didn’t love the texture from cooking it in a crockpot. For a while after that, I made it according to that recipe but just baked it in the oven.
Over the years I developed the recipe to make it low carb, sugar, and gluten-free. I now omit the bread crumbs, use unsweetened dried cranberries to replace the dried cherries, and occasionally use gorgonzola cheese instead of the blue.
Ingredients: unsweetened dried cranberries, ground turkey, crumbled blue or gorgonzola cheese, dried minced garlic, minced onion, fresh basil, egg, salt
