Ingredients
Scale
For the Filling
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 cup ketchup
For the Assembly
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
For the Bisquick Topping
- 1/2 cup Bisquick mix
- 1 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
Instructions
- Prepare Oven and Pie Dish: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish to prevent sticking and set aside.
- Cook the Beef Mixture: Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and chopped onion. Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring and breaking the meat apart with a spoon, until the beef is browned and the onion tender. Drain off any excess grease.
- Season and Add Ketchup: Season the beef mixture with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Stir in the ketchup, ensuring everything is well combined. Transfer the mixture evenly into the prepared pie dish.
- Add Cheese Layer: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the beef mixture in the pie dish, creating a melty, cheesy layer.
- Mix and Pour the Bisquick Batter: In a small bowl, whisk together the Bisquick mix, milk, and eggs until smooth. Pour this batter evenly over the beef and cheese layers in the pie dish.
- Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and set (a knife inserted in the center should come out clean).
- Rest and Serve: Let the cheeseburger pie rest for 5 minutes before slicing to help it set. Serve warm, optionally with ketchup, mustard, or pickles on the side for the full cheeseburger experience.
Notes
- Swap ground beef for ground turkey or chicken for a lighter version.
- Add chopped pickles or a touch of mustard for extra cheeseburger flavor.
- Shred cheese yourself for better melting and flavor, if possible.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven or microwave.
- Letting the pie rest ensures clean slices and less crumbly servings.
