Why You’ll Love This Recipe

I love this cheeseburger pie because it combines everyday ingredients into a dish that feels special and cozy. It reminds me of comfort food but with an easy-to-make twist. I can prepare it quickly, and it’s always a crowd-pleaser with family and friends.

Ingredients

(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

1 large onion, chopped (1 cup)
1 pound ground beef
½ teaspoon salt
Ground black pepper, to taste
Garlic powder, to taste (optional)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
½ cup Bisquick mix
1 cup milk
2 large eggs

Directions

I start by preheating my oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a skillet, I cook the ground beef and onion over medium heat until the beef is browned and the onion is soft. I season with salt, pepper, and a little garlic powder.
I drain any excess fat, then spread the beef mixture evenly into a greased 9-inch pie plate.
I sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the beef mixture.
In a bowl, I whisk together Bisquick mix, milk, and eggs until smooth, then pour it evenly over the cheese and beef.
I bake for 25–30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
I let it rest for about 5 minutes before serving.

Servings and timing

This recipe makes about 6 servings.

Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 30 minutes
Total time: 40 minutes

Variations

I sometimes swap cheddar cheese for a mix of Monterey Jack and mozzarella for a different flavor. I’ve also added diced pickles or a little mustard to the beef for that extra cheeseburger kick. If I want to lighten it up, I use ground turkey instead of beef.

storage/reheating

I store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, I cover the pie with foil and warm it in a 350°F oven until heated through. The microwave also works for quick single servings, though the crust stays crispier when I reheat in the oven.
