Ingredients
1 refrigerated pie crust
1 pound ground beef
1 small yellow onion, chopped
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon mustard
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
2 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Fit the pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate and prick the bottom with a fork. Pre-bake for 8 minutes.
2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and chopped onion until beef is browned and onions are soft. Drain excess fat.
3. Stir in garlic powder, ketchup, and mustard. Cook for another 2 minutes.
4. Spread the beef mixture evenly in the pre-baked crust. Top with shredded cheddar cheese.
5. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Pour over the beef and cheese.
6. Bake for 30–35 minutes until golden and the center is set.
7. Let rest 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm.
Notes
Blind baking the crust keeps it from becoming soggy under the beef filling.
You can swap cheddar for pepper jack or Swiss for a twist in flavor.
