Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 1 cup diced tomatoes (fresh or canned)
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Crust
- 1½ cups biscuit or pie dough (store-bought or homemade)
Optional Toppings
- Pickles
- Mustard
- Ketchup
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef with finely chopped onion until the meat is browned and the onion becomes translucent. Drain excess fat, then stir in diced tomatoes, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for additional 3-5 minutes until flavors meld together. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Mix the Egg and Milk Mixture: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until fully combined. This mixture will help bind the pie filling and create a custardy texture once baked.
- Assemble the Pie: Roll out the biscuit or pie dough and press it into the bottom of a greased 9-inch pie pan or oven-safe skillet. Spread the beef mixture evenly over the crust, then pour the egg and milk mixture on top. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly across the pie.
- Bake the Pie: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the assembled pie in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the filling is set and bubbly.
- Serve: Let the pie cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with optional toppings such as pickles, mustard, and ketchup for the ultimate cheeseburger experience.
Notes
- You can substitute the biscuit dough with your favorite pie crust dough if desired.
- For extra flavor, add chopped pickles or relish inside the filling before baking.
- Make sure to drain excess grease from the cooked beef to prevent a soggy crust.
- This dish reheats well and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
