Impossible pies have been around since the 70s, and are still popular today. There are dozens of variations, from sweet to savory, and most are very easy to put together. This version of Impossible Cheeseburger Pie takes advantage of packages of already browned ground beef mixture from the Basic Ground Beef Module which saves time (although if you don’t have packages in the freezer, you can brown a pound of ground beef with onions and drain well). The “crust” (in this case floats to the top of the pie and is quite soft and delicious) is made from Basic Master Baking Mix or commercial baking mix along with eggs and milk.

This is so quick to put together, it can be made on a weeknight; it bakes in only 25 minutes, and that’s plenty of time to throw a salad together as a good accompaniment.
