Impossible Cheeseburger Pie {Bisquick Cheeseburger Pie} - Gonna Want Seconds (2024)

Impossible Cheeseburger pie is a wholesome, humble, beefy, cheesy masterpiece! It’s a vintage recipe from the 1970s that my grandma gave me when I first got married. It turns typical ground beef into a totally crave-able, kid- friendly, weeknight dinner. It’s got all the hallmarks of an incredible dinner the whole family will love. Best of all, it’s on the table in under an hour.

There’s something magical about the simplicity of this pie and it is scrumptious. Just add your browned meat-n-veggie mixture to a deep pie dish. Then whisk together your Bisquick topping crust ingredients and pour it over your pie filling. Now cover with cheese and bake until that golden goodness calls to you.

Impossible Cheeseburger Pie Ingredients

• Ground Beef: This pie recipe calls for ground beef. I typically use an 80/20 blend. I know everyone is different, but that ratio is important for this recipe because it keeps everything moist and juicy. You can also use ground chicken or ground turkey instead.
• Onion: I use a yellow onion. A white onion works just as well.
• Garlic: I always use fresh. I find that the prepared garlic in a jar has a strange flavor.
• Worcestershire Sauce: This is an irreplaceable condiment that has been fermented and tastes savory, sweet, and slightly tangy.
• Salt: Table salt is what you need!
• Black Pepper: Fresh cracked black pepper is best.

Crust:

• Bisquick: The original all-purpose baking mix. I use the original Bisquick in this recipe but feel free to try to use their gluten-free or Heart-Smart version.
• Milk: I use whole milk.
• Eggs: I generally have large eggs on hand so that is what I use.

Topping:

• Cheddar Cheese or Pepper Jack

Tips For Impossible Cheeseburger Pie

• Bake: I always bake mine uncovered. It allows the air to circulate so that the pie bakes up nice and even with a perfectly golden cheesy crust.
• Feed a crowd:If you want to stretch out the meal a bit, you can double the impossible concoction and fill up a 9” x 13” pan instead.
  • You can also make cute little individual pies by baking this in muffin tins!
    1. Mix all the ingredients, then fill a lightly greased pan with a scant tablespoon of the Bisquick batter, ¼ c. of the beef filling, then another tablespoon of the batter.
    2. They’ll need to bake for about 30 minutes, cool for 5, then be taken out tocool for another 10 minutes to avoid any impatient mouth burning.
• Fillings + Toppings –Make this a bacon cheeseburger pie by adding about 6 slices of cooked and crumbled bacon to the beef before adding the Bisquick batter. Some impossible cheeseburger pie recipes add ketchup, mustard, or even dill pickle relish to the filling to emulate an actual cheeseburger.
  • I like to save those things for garnish since no two guests are exactly alike when it comes to hamburger fixin’s.
• How To Check Doneness – The center will be set, the top golden, and a knife inserted into the center will come out clean.

Storing + Freezing + Make-Ahead

• How Long Can You Keep This In The Fridge?This impossibly delicious cheeseburger pie will stay fresh and yummy in the fridge for a couple of days when stored properly, although I rarely have leftovers. When I do I either transfer it to an airtight container or cover it tightly with cling wrap before putting it in the fridge.Easy peasy!
• Can You Freeze This?Yes!!!….and you have options.You can either cook it up and then freeze it or you can throw everything together and toss it in the freezer before you cook it(minus the cheese, of course).
  • When you’re ready to serve all you have to do is thaw it out, cover it with cheese, and bake! The temperature and length of time will be determined by whether you’re reheating leftovers or baking up a frozen cheeseburger pie.
• Can You Make Impossible Cheeseburger Pie Ahead Of Time?This impossibly easy cheeseburger pie is – well –super simple!Even when you know you’ve got a busy day ahead, you can throw this thing together and slide it into the fridge without baking. It’ll stay ready to go for up to 24 hours. Then all it takes is preheating the oven and dinner on the table in 40 minutes.
