Tips & Variations

• For extra flavor, try adding chopped pickles or a dash of smoked paprika to the beef mixture.
• Swap cheddar cheese for pepper jack or mozzarella to change up the cheese profile.
• Use ground turkey or chicken for a lighter version of this pie.
• If you don’t have Bisquick, use a mix of all-purpose flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt as a substitute.

Storage

Store any leftover cheeseburger pie covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat individual slices in the microwave or oven until warmed through. This pie can also be frozen for up to one month; thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.

FAQs

Can I make cheeseburger pie ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the beef mixture and the milk-batter separately in advance. Assemble the pie just before baking for best texture and freshness.

Can I use a different baking dish instead of a pie pan?

Absolutely! A similar-sized casserole dish or baking dish works well and may just change the shape of the pie slightly, but the baking time remains about the same.

To Serve

Instructions

5. Prepare the Batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, Bisquick baking mix, and eggs until smooth and fully combined.
6. Pour Batter Over Meat: Slowly and evenly pour the egg mixture over the meat and cheese layer in the pie pan, allowing it to settle between all ingredients.

8. Serve: Remove from oven and let it cool slightly. Serve slices with your favorite burger toppings such as ketchup, mustard, shredded lettuce, and diced tomatoes.

Notes

• You can use a lower-fat cheese or reduced-fat Bisquick if you want a lighter dish.
• Make sure not to overmix the batter to keep the topping light and fluffy.
• Try adding pickles or sautéed mushrooms as extra toppings for more flavor variety.
• This pie is best served warm but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated.
• Feel free to use a cast iron skillet as a substitute for the pie pan for a crispy edge.
