Portion burger mixture evenly (about 1/3-1/2 cup each), shaping into a loose patty and press into prepared cups.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until deep golden brown and set at the centers.
Let cool in tins on wire rack for at least 5 minutes before removing. Serve warm or room temperature.
