Southern Style Cheeseburger Pie

Step 3: Assemble the Pie

1. Pre-bake the pie crust for 8–10 minutes to prevent sogginess. Remove from oven and let it cool slightly.
2. Spread half of the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses evenly over the bottom of the crust.
3. Pour the cooked beef mixture into the crust, spreading it evenly.
4. Top with the remaining shredded cheeses.

Step 4: Bake the Cheeseburger Pie

1. Bake in the preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20–25 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
2. If the edges of the crust brown too quickly, cover them with foil to prevent burning.
3. Remove from the oven and allow the pie to cool for 5–10 minutes.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

1. Slice the Southern Style Cheeseburger Pie into wedges, just like a traditional pie.
2. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
3. Serve warm with a side of coleslaw, French fries, or a simple green salad.

💡 Tips for the Perfect Cheeseburger Pie

• Cheese choice: A combination of sharp cheddar and mozzarella gives a balance of flavor and gooey texture.
• Don’t overfill: Leave a little space at the top to prevent the filling from spilling over during baking.
• Make-ahead friendly: The pie can be assembled ahead of time and refrigerated until ready to bake.
• Optional toppings: Add sliced tomatoes or pickled jalapeños for extra flavor and a Southern twist.
