Pioneer Woman Cheeseburger Pie Recipe
The Pioneer Woman Cheeseburger Pie Recipe is pure comfort food. It tastes like a juicy cheeseburger in pie form. I love how simple and filling it feels.
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 small onion chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
Instructions
Cook the Beef
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and onion. Cook until beef turns brown. Drain extra fat.
Season the Meat
- Add salt and black pepper to the beef. Stir well. Remove skillet from heat. Let it cool slightly.
Prepare the Pie Dish
- Grease a pie dish lightly with butter. Spread the cooked beef mixture evenly inside the dish.
Add the Cheese
- Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the beef. Make sure cheese covers the meat evenly.
Mix the Batter
- In a bowl, whisk milk, eggs, flour, baking powder and melted butter until smooth and lump free.
Pour the Batter
- Slowly pour the batter over beef and cheese. Batter will spread and settle around the filling.
Bake the Pie
- Place dish in a preheated oven at 400°F. Bake for thirty five minutes until golden and firm.
Rest Before Serving
- Remove pie from oven. Let it rest ten minutes. This helps slices hold shape better.
Notes
- Use lean ground beef to reduce grease.
- Shred cheese fresh for better melting.
- Add pickles or bacon for extra flavor.
- Let pie cool before slicing.
- Serve warm for best taste.
