I love cheeseburgers, but sometimes I just don’t want to deal with the hassle of the grill or the mess of a frying pan. This cheeseburger pie is a simple delicious casserole. Made with the help of Bisquick baking mix and a hefty serving of cheddar cheese. I love how easy it is to make, and my whole family loves the flavor. Sometimes it’s nice to enjoy an old favorite in a new way!
This cheeseburger pie is packed with lean ground beef, ketchup, mustard, and, of course, tons of cheddar cheese. It’s topped with a biscuit-like crust made from Bisquick baking mix that’s a fun twist on a hamburger bun! I just love how easy it is to make with so few ingredients!

Becky’s Tips
- This is a great make-ahead recipe. I like to prep and assemble the pie the day before, cover it in the refrigerator, and bake the next day. I usually add about 5-10 extra minutes to the final bake time.
- If you’re not a fan of ground beef (or are looking for something healthier), I have had good success using ground chicken and/or turkey in place of the beef!
- Cheddar cheese is my favorite to add to classic burgers. If you have a different favorite cheese, feel free to use that instead!

How to Store and Reheat
Store leftover cheeseburger pie tightly wrapped in aluminum foil or plastic wrap in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in a 350°F oven for 30-40 minutes, or until warmed through.
Freeze Bisquick cheeseburger pie tightly wrapped in 2 layers of plastic wrap and 1 layer of aluminum foil to prevent freezer burn. It will keep for up to 3 months. Let it thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
