When my mom went gluten-free, she handled it like a champ—except for one thing: her love for Big Macs. The woman lives for that saucy, cheesy, pickle-packed bite. So naturally, I had to find a way to bring the burger magic back without the bun.
Enter: Rice Paper Big Mac Spirals.They're crispy, juicy, and wrapped in golden rice paper instead of bread. Think of them as Big Mac-inspired burger dumplings—with all the flavor and none of the gluten.
These sliders are:
GF-friendly and totally snackable
Stuffed with cheesy beef, lettuce, pickles
Crispy on the outside, melty in the middle, and ready in under 30 minutes
Even my mom was impressed. If you're craving that fast-food flavor but need a gluten-free twist, give these a go. Just maybe make a double batch—you will want seconds.
Rice Paper Big Mac Spirals Recipe
Ingredients
3 rice paper sheets
2 eggs
1 cup sautéed ground beef
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella
1/4 cup diced onion
1/4 cup diced pickles
Sesame seeds
Paprika
Garlic powder
Instructions
Start by combining your filling, fold together sautéed ground beef, mozzarella, diced onions and pickles. Season with salt, pepper, paprika and garlic powder.
Whisk together eggs on a plate, then dip each rice paper sheet for a few seconds before laying out of a lightly oiled cutting board.
Spoon the filling in a line across the rice paper sheets and roll up into a tight cylinder, then gently curve it around itself into a spiral.
Brush with a bit of the egg wash and top with sesame seeds.
Bake at 400F for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Serve with your favorite burger sauce. Enjoy!
Enjoy...and let me know what you think!
I made these for dinner tonight. They are easy to put together, and taste so good!
I wonder how they would do if I froze them, and reheated later.
Great recipe.
These look amazing. Great treat and no bread.
