- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp mustard (optional, for a tangy bite)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 pre-made pie crust (or homemade, if preferred)
Optional Additions
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder or smoked paprika for depth
- A handful of diced pickles or jalapeños for tang/spice
- 1 tbsp ketchup or BBQ sauce mixed into the beef
- Swap cheddar with pepper jack for extra heat
- Add 1/2 cup of cooked bacon bits for a bacon cheeseburger twist
Tips for Success
- Drain the beef well after browning to avoid soggy crust.
- Precook the pie crust for 5–7 minutes to keep it crisp.
- Use room temperature eggs for better mixing and baking consistency.
- Let it rest for 5–10 minutes after baking for clean slices and best flavor.
- Use a glass or ceramic pie dish for even browning and presentation.
