Nothing impossible about it
This pie has a tender biscuit crust filled with savory ground beef and cheese. It takes only 40 minutes from start to finish.
The magic of impossible pies
The first impossible pie appeared in the 1970s. Bisquick baking mix added to the filling made its own crust.
Classic cheeseburger flavor
Ketchup and mustard in the filling give it that familiar taste. You can customize it with bacon, tomatoes and pickles.
Simple pantry ingredients
You need Bisquick, ground beef, onion, egg, milk and cheddar cheese. Ketchup, mustard, garlic powder, salt and pepper make the sauce.
Cook the beef layer first
Brown the ground beef and onion in a skillet, then drain. Stir in the sauce ingredients and transfer to a greased pie plate.
Sprinkle cheese over the meat
Add shredded cheddar cheese on top of the beef mixture. Grating your own cheese gives you a smoother melt than bagged.
Pour the biscuit batter on top
Mix egg, milk and biscuit mix until just combined. Pour this batter over the cheese and beef layer.
Bake until set
Bake at 400°F for 22 to 25 minutes. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean.
Try these variations
Swap cheddar for pepper Jack or Swiss. Use ground turkey instead of beef, or mix in cooked bacon.
Leftovers keep well
Store covered in the fridge for up to four days. You can also freeze the pie for up to three months.
Reheat three ways
Warm the whole pie covered with foil in a 350° oven. Or reheat slices in a toaster oven or microwave.
In short
Bisquick mixed into the filling creates its own biscuit crust, making this cheeseburger-flavored pie incredibly easy to prepare.
