Description
A delightful pie that combines the classic flavors of a cheeseburger, featuring savory ground beef, melted cheddar cheese, and a fluffy custard-like filling.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce (optional)
- Cooking spray or butter for greasing the pan
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef along with the chopped onion until the beef is fully cooked and the onion is soft. Drain the excess fat.
- Season the beef mixture with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce, if desired.
- Grease a 9-inch pie dish, then evenly spread the beef mixture on the bottom.
- Sprinkle cheddar cheese over the meat mixture, ensuring even coverage.
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and flour until you achieve a smooth mixture. Pour this mixture evenly over the beef and cheese layers.
- Bake in your preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the top is golden and the center is set.
- Allow it to cool slightly before slicing into wedges to serve.
