How to Make Cheeseburger Pie
Cheeseburger pie is going to be one of your new favorite meals! It is so easy to make and comes together quickly and easily. Prepare this cheeseburger pie in a matter of minutes and have your family dinner ready in no time!
Ground beef – Use lean ground beef, like 85% or higher, to help cut back on fat. Once cooked, drain the excess grease off the meat before adding it to the pan. Onion – Chop a white or yellow onion and cook with the ground beef. This will give moisture to the beef as well as add in flavor. Cheddar cheese – Sprinkle shredded cheese over top of the ground beef. The shredded cheese melts easier and will mix together easier as it is baked. If you are wanting a hamburger pie, leave out the cheese. Bisquick mix – This is a simple way to make a crust for those busy weeknight meals. You can also use the Krusteaz baking mix if you have this one at home instead of Bisquick. Both will work great! Milk – Thin the batter with milk added in. You can use any percentage of milk. I would not recommend almond milk or a low-fat milk though. Eggs – These are added in for the pie crust to give the batter filling. The crust batter is going to look runny but it will form once baked.
Don’t over-mix – The crust batter will be a little runny and milky, but not thick. Don’t over-mix the batter though. Stir until combined and leave it. Serving – When ready to serve, garnish the cheeseburger with all your favorite toppings on a cheeseburger. Cutting the pie – Wait 15 to 20 minutes before cutting into the pie. This will allow the cheeseburger to set up and not fall apart when slicing. Use a sharp knife to cut through the cheeseburger. Double the recipe – If you are serving a larger family, double the recipe and add the cheeseburger to a 9×13 pan.
Protein – For a lighter meal, try ground turkey or ground chicken in replace of ground beef. Vegetables – Add shredded carrot or zucchini in with the ground beef and onion mixture. This will add extra veggies and it doesn’t alter the taste. Cheese – Switch up the cheese to the favorite burger cheese you like. Try Monterey jack, swiss, or your favorite. Toppings – Top with sautéed onions or mushrooms before serving to kick it up a notch. You can even make it like a cheeseburger and add lettuce, tomato, and even dill pickles or pickle relish! Condiments – One of our favorite things to put on cheeseburger pie is ketchup and sometimes mustard. Give it a try!
Make ahead – Prepare up to 24 hours ahead of time. Just cover with aluminum foil and refrigerate before baking. When ready to bake, pull out of the fridge and just bake it about 5 minutes longer than the original recipe Storing – Leftover cheeseburger pie is simple to store in the refrigerator. Place the leftover pie into an airtight container for three to four days long. When ready to reheat, place it in the oven or microwave until it is warmed back through.
