I created this DIY Sprite recipe one day in my spare time. Without the added additives, it tastes exactly like the real thing.
| Prep Time: | 10 mins |
| Cook Time: | 25 mins |
| Total Time: | 35 mins |
| Servings: | 4 |
| Yield: | 4 patty melts |
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 large yellow onions, thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- 8 slices rye bread
- 8 teaspoons butter
Instructions
- Heat butter and oil in a Dutch oven. Add onions, season with salt and pepper, cook, stirring continually, for 3 minutes. Cover with a lid and allow onions to caramelize, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, about 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine ground beef, garlic salt, and pepper in a bowl and mix thoroughly. Shape ground beef into 4 rectangular patties.
- Cook patties in a skillet over medium-high heat, flipping once, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Add a slice of Swiss cheese to each patty and top each with an equal amount of caramelized onions.
- Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven’s broiler.
- Spread 1 teaspoon butter over each slice of bread. Broil until lightly golden and toasted. Assemble patty melts and serve immediately.

Reviews
I used ground turkey and it was great. This has become part of our regular meals.
Very good sandwich. The only change I made is to pan frying it instead of broiling to finish. Used a bacon press on top.
Easy peasy! Tweaked the recipe by adding cheese I had in fridge. My husband loved this burger!!!
Didn’t make any changes. I might have used less butter due to it being so rich.
