Ingredients
Scale
Meat and Cheese
- 1 pound ground beef
- ½ cup onion (diced)
- 1 cup cheddar cheese (shredded)
Batter
- 1 cup milk
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ¾ cup Bisquick
- 2 large eggs (room temperature)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit to get it ready for baking the pie.
- Prepare Pie Pan: Grease a 9 inch pie pan thoroughly to prevent sticking and set it aside.
- Cook Beef and Onions: In a large skillet, brown the ground beef and diced onions together until fully cooked. Drain off any excess grease.
- Assemble Base: Spread the cooked ground beef and onions evenly across the bottom of the greased pie pan, then sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly on top.
- Make Batter: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, salt, ground black pepper, garlic powder, Bisquick, and eggs until just combined to form a smooth batter.
- Pour Batter: Pour the batter evenly over the meat and cheese layer in the pie pan.
- Bake: Place the assembled pie pan into the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the batter is set.
- Serve: Remove the pie from the oven and serve immediately while hot and comforting.
Notes
- Use room temperature eggs for a smoother batter and better rise.
- Drain excess grease carefully to avoid a soggy crust.
- Feel free to add your favorite seasonings or vegetables like bell peppers for extra flavor.
- Serve with a fresh side salad or steamed vegetables for a balanced meal.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated for a quick next-day meal.
