# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Grease a 9-inch pie plate with butter or cooking spray.
02 -
Cook the ground beef and onion in a large skillet over medium heat for 7-9 minutes, breaking up the meat, until the beef is browned and the onion is soft. Drain excess fat.
03 -
Stir in Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute, then spread the beef mixture evenly in the prepared pie plate.
04 -
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar evenly over the warm beef filling.
05 -
In a bowl, whisk the baking mix, milk, and eggs until smooth and pourable. Pour the batter evenly over the cheese and beef.
06 -
Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the top is puffed and golden and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
07 -
Let the pie rest for 8 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with pickles and extra ketchup or mustard if desired.
# Good to know:
01 -
Letting the pie rest helps the slices hold their shape.
02 -
Freshly shredded cheddar melts better than pre-shredded cheese.
03 -
Serve with salad, green beans, pickles, or sliced tomatoes.
