Ingredients
Scale
Meat:
- 1 pound (454 grams) ground beef
Cheese and Dairy:
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup milk
- 2 eggs
Other Ingredients:
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1/2 cup Bisquick mix
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the oven by heating to 400°F and thoroughly coating a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray or butter.
- Sauté ground beef and diced onions in a skillet over medium heat, breaking meat into small crumbles until fully cooked and no pink remains. Carefully drain accumulated fat.
- Evenly distribute the seasoned beef mixture across the prepared pie dish, creating a uniform base layer.
- Generously scatter shredded cheese over the meat, ensuring complete coverage.
- Combine Bisquick mix, milk, and eggs in a mixing bowl, whisking until the mixture achieves a smooth, lump-free consistency.
- Gently pour the batter over the beef and cheese layer, allowing it to naturally settle and fill any gaps.
- Transfer the pie dish to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, monitoring until the surface turns a rich golden brown and a knife inserted near the center emerges clean.
- Remove from oven and allow the pie to rest for 5 minutes, which helps the filling set and makes slicing easier.
- Cut into wedges and serve while still warm, enjoying the melted cheese and savory meat filling.
Notes
- Customize meat selection by using ground turkey or plant-based crumbles for healthier alternatives.
- Reduce sodium content by choosing low-fat cheese and using herbs instead of salt for seasoning.
- Enhance flavor profile by adding diced bell peppers or mushrooms to the ground beef mixture for extra nutrition and texture.
- Make the dish gluten-free by substituting Bisquick with a gluten-free baking mix or almond flour blend.
