- 1 lb ground beef: The star of the pie, providing that classic cheeseburger taste.
- 1 large onion, chopped: Adds sweetness and depth of flavor once cooked.
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt: To enhance the flavors of the ingredients.
- 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper: Adds a slight kick.
- 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese: Gives the pie that gooey, cheesy goodness.
- 1/2 cup of Original Bisquick mix: Helps create the “impossible” crust that forms during baking.
- 1 cup of milk: Combines with the Bisquick mix to form the pie’s base.
- 2 eggs: Acts as a binder for the pie, helping everything hold together.
Instructions for Making Impossible Cheeseburger Pie
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures the pie cooks evenly.
- Brown the ground beef and onion in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once fully cooked, drain any excess fat and season with salt and pepper. This mixture will form the flavorful base of your pie.
- Spread the beef mixture in the bottom of a 9-inch pie plate. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the beef. The cheese will melt into the beef layer, creating a delicious middle layer of the pie.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the Bisquick mix, milk, and eggs until smooth. This mixture might seem liquidy, but it will bake into a crust-like topping. Pour this batter over the cheese and beef in the pie plate.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. The pie should set up nicely, with a soft crust forming on top and the sides.
- Let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing. This resting period helps the pie set further, making it easier to slice and serve.
- Serve warm. Enjoy your Impossible Cheeseburger Pie as is, or with a side of your favorite salad for a complete meal
