Ingredients

• 1 (10.5 oz) can Campbell’s French onion soup
• 1½ lbs ground beef
• ½ cup dry breadcrumbs
• 1 large egg
• ¼ tsp salt
• Black pepper, to taste
• 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
• ¼ cup ketchup
• 1–3 tsp Worcestershire sauce (adjust to taste)
• ½ tsp mustard powder
• ¼ cup water

Instructions

1. Make Patties: In a large bowl, combine ⅓ cup of the French onion soup with ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined. Shape into six oval patties. (~5 minutes)
2. Brown Patties: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add patties and cook until browned and crusted, about 3–4 minutes per side. Drain excess fat from the skillet. (~8 minutes)
3. Prepare Gravy: In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining onion soup and flour until smooth. Stir in ketchup, water, Worcestershire sauce, and mustard powder. (~3 minutes)
4. Simmer: Pour the gravy over the patties in the skillet. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. (~20 minutes)
5. Serve: Serve hot, spooning gravy over the patties. Pair with creamy mashed potatoes, green beans, or your favorite sides. (~2 minutes)
