Comfort food doesn’t get more nostalgic than this classic cheeseburger  pie. Inspired by the heartwarming flavors of a good old-fashioned diner  burger, this savory bake combines seasoned ground beef, melty cheese, and a buttery pie crust for a dish that’s as easy to make as it is to devour. Whether you’re feeding a hungry family or looking for a fun twist on weeknight dinner, this pie delivers rich flavor and hearty satisfaction in every bite.

The beauty of this recipe lies in its simplicity and versatility. With a store-bought pie crust and basic pantry staples, you can whip up a crowd-pleasing dinner in under an hour. The ketchup and mustard mixture mimics the iconic cheeseburger tang, while a double dose of cheese—cheddar and mozzarella—ensures that creamy, gooey finish everyone loves.

This dish also invites creativity. Add a handful of chopped bacon, a spoonful of relish, or even a pinch of crushed red pepper to the meat mixture to make it your own. The egg and milk batter poured over the top sets into a lightly custardy layer that brings the whole pie together and helps it slice cleanly.

Perfect for potlucks, busy evenings, or even weekend brunch, cheeseburger pie is one of those timeless recipes that always hits the spot. Pair it with a crisp green salad or classic fries for the full burger joint experience—minus the drive-thru.
