I searched and searched for a crochet cheeseburger pattern to go with the play food set that I am crochet-ing.
But I just wasn't happy with the free patterns that I found. I did find a cute one for sale, but being on a tight budget, I didn't want to buy it. So, I made my own up. And now I will do my best to share it with you.
To make this set you need to know how to slip stitch, single crochet (sc), make a magic ring, double crochet (dc), sc2tog, crochet in back loops. Each piece is worked in a continous round without joining. Inside of buns (make 2): Using an F -5 hook and an off-white worsted weight yarn 1. Make 8 sc into a magic ring. (8) 2. 2 sc in each stitch around. Pull magic ring closed tight. (16) 3. 1sc in next stitch, 2sc in next stitch around. (24) 4. 1 sc in next 2 stitches, 2 sc in next stitch around. (32) 5. 1 sc in next 3 stitches, 2 sc in next stitch around. (40) 6. 1 sc in next 4 stitches, 2 sc in next stitch around. (48). 7. Fasten off and weave in ends.

Now assemble your bun by sewing a bun bottom with an inner and a bun top with an inner, stuff before closing. If you would like embroider some "seeds" on the bun top with white yarn before sewing and stuffing. Now you have a nice round bun!
