How To Make This Cheeseburger Pie Recipe
Let’s walk through the step-by-step instructions for making this delicious cheeseburger pie.
OUR RECIPE DEVELOPER SAYS
Ground beef and onions can be batch cooked ahead of time and stored in the fridge or freezer to use later. This is a great time-saver.
STEP ONE: Preheat your oven to 400°F.
STEP TWO: Spray an 8-inch pie pan with nonstick cooking spray and set it aside.
STEP THREE: In a large skillet, cook beef, onions, salt, pepper, and onion powder over medium heat until the meat is browned and the onions are translucent. Drain any extra fat.
PRO TIP:
We recommend using a potato masher to help break up the ground beef.
STEP FOUR: Place half of the meat mixture into the prepared pie pan.
STEP FIVE: Sprinkle a cup of the grated cheese over the ground beef filling.
STEP SIX: Top the cheese with the remaining ground beef.
STEP SEVEN: Pour the remaining cup of cheddar cheese on top of the meat mixture.
STEP EIGHT: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, Bisquick, milk, and garlic salt until fairly smooth. It’s okay if it has a few lumps.
STEP NINE: Pour the batter mixture over the meat pie.
STEP TEN: Bake for 25 minutes or until a tester or knife inserted comes out clean of any batter.
STEP ELEVEN: Serve and enjoy!
PRO TIP:
Add a sprinkle of sesame seeds to mimic a sesame seed bun with your cheeseburger pie.

I have used an old fashioned potato masher to cook hamburger for 64 years!! I LOVE IT it also works very well for stirring!
Gloria says

Janet Wiesman says
A delicious meal, will be making this one often.
Diana says
Thank you, my family LOVES this! I add diced dill pickles because my kids say it is not a burger without pickles. I also zig zag ketchup and mustard over the top to make it look pretty. The best part is that this is easy to make low carb by eliminating the baking mix and increasing the eggs.
