6. Pour the creamy gravy evenly over the beef patties, making sure they are well coated.
7. Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil.
8. Bake for 35 minutes.
9. Remove the foil and continue baking for another 10–15 minutes, or until the patties are fully cooked and the gravy is bubbling.
10. Let the dish rest for 5 minutes before serving.
