If you love juicy cheeseburgers and cozy comfort food, this Impossible Cheeseburger Pie is about to become your new favorite weeknight dinner. It delivers all the iconic flavors of a classic cheeseburger—ground beef, onions, garlic, and melted cheddar cheese—but with an easy twist: it’s baked into a savory pie that’s hearty, satisfying, and packed with nostalgic flavor.
The “impossible” part? It magically forms its own crust as it bakes, thanks to a simple Bisquick batter. No rolling, no layering, and no stress—just mix, pour, bake, and enjoy.

Ingredients
For the Filling:
1 lb ground beef (80/20 recommended for juiciness)
1 large onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
For the “Crust”:
½ cup Bisquick baking mix
1 cup whole milk
2 large eggs
Topping:
1 cup extra-sharp cheddar cheese, grated
Instructions
1. Preheat & Prep
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 9-inch pie plate with nonstick spray or butter and set aside.
2. Cook the Beef Mixture
In a skillet over medium heat, combine ground beef, onions, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Cook until the beef is fully browned and the onions are soft—about 10 minutes.
Drain any excess fat and transfer the mixture to the pie plate, spreading it evenly.
3. Make the Batter
In a bowl, whisk together the Bisquick, milk, and eggs until smooth. The batter will be pourable and slightly thick.
4. Assemble the Pie
Pour the Bisquick mixture evenly over the beef layer in the pie plate. Then sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese over the top.
5. Bake
Bake for 30–40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.
6. Rest & Serve
Let the pie cool for about 10 minutes before slicing. This helps everything set and makes slicing neater.
Tips & Variations
Cheese Swap: Try pepper jack, Swiss, or gouda for a twist.
Add Veggies: Sneak in chopped bell peppers or mushrooms for added flavor and nutrition.
Make it spicy: Add a pinch of cayenne or diced jalapeños to the beef.
Double up: Make two and freeze one for a busy night!
