Ingredients:
- 1 large onion, chopped (about 1 cup)
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Ground black pepper, to taste
- Garlic powder, to taste (optional)
- 1 cup grated Cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup Original Bisquick mix (or all-purpose flour)
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 large eggs
Directions:
Preheat the Oven:
- Set the Oven Temperature: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Grease the Pie Plate: Prepare a 9-inch glass pie plate by greasing it with vegetable oil or non-stick spray. This step ensures your pie will come out easily after baking.
Cook the Onion and Beef:
- Sauté the Onion: Heat a small amount of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 3 minutes.
- Brown the Beef: Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until the beef is browned and fully cooked, about 10 minutes.
- Drain and Season: Drain any excess fat from the skillet, then season the beef mixture with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder if desired. Stir to ensure even seasoning.
Assemble the Pie:
- Layer the Beef: Evenly spread the cooked and seasoned beef mixture into the prepared pie plate.
- Add the Cheese: Sprinkle the grated Cheddar cheese evenly over the beef layer, covering it completely.
Prepare the Batter:
- Mix the Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the Bisquick mix (or all-purpose flour), whole milk, and eggs until smooth and well combined.
- Pour Over Beef: Carefully pour the batter over the beef and cheese layers in the pie plate, ensuring it spreads evenly across the top.
Bake the Pie:
- Bake to Perfection: Place the pie plate in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. The pie is done when a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Serve:
- Cool and Slice: Allow the pie to cool slightly before slicing.
- Enjoy: Serve warm and enjoy this delicious and hearty Cheeseburger Pie with your favorite condiments or a side salad.
