Last week I wanted to make the classic bisquick cheeseburger pie for dinner. I grew up with this dish and always loved it. My family has always enjoyed it when I’ve made it in the past also. But it had been a long time since we had it, mainly because we no longer buy bisquick.
For a long time I have wanted to tackle making a really good bisquick substitute. Everything I have tried has been really lacking though. So I finally decided to combine some of the recipes I found and came up with this wonderful alternative.
Homemade Bisquick Mix & Cheeseburger Pie Recipe
Ingredients
Homemade Bisquick Mix
- 5 cup flour
- 2 tbsp baking powder
- 2 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup dry milk powder
- 3/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 cup butter or margarine
Cheeseburger Pie
- 1/2 – 1 lb ground beef or turkey
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 tsp salt
- 12 tsp garlic powder
- 2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup homemade bisquick mix
- 2 cup water
- 4 eggs
Instructions
Homemade Bisquick Mix
- Combine all of the dry ingredients. Cut butter or margarine into the mixture with a pastry cutter or two knives until crumbly. Store in a well-sealed container in the freezer.
Cheeseburger Pie
- Brown ground beef with onion, salt and garlic powder. Place in a greased 9 x 13 casserole pan.
- Cover with cheese. (If you are making this ahead of time, let the beef cool first.)
- Whisk together mix, water and eggs. Pour over beef and cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes.
**This is very stolen moments-friendly. I made this at 10:00 am and it sat, uncooked, in the refrigerator until half an hour before dinner.
