🛒 Ingredients
- 1½ lb ground beef, preferably 80/20
- 8 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 large eggs
- ½ cup heavy cream
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ½ tsp smoked paprika, optional
- 1 tbsp butter or bacon grease, for greasing the dish
👩🍳 Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish with butter or bacon grease.
- Cook the beef: Brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat until completely cooked through. Drain excess grease if necessary.
- Add the bacon: Stir the crumbled cooked bacon into the beef. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika.
- Layer the cheese: Spread the beef and bacon mixture evenly into the prepared pie dish. Sprinkle about 1 cup of cheddar cheese over the top.
- Make the egg mixture: Whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until smooth. Pour evenly over the beef and cheese.
- Top with cheese: Sprinkle the remaining cheddar over the top.
- Bake: Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the center is fully set and the cheese is melted and lightly golden.
- Rest: Allow the pie to rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This helps it firm up and makes it easier to serve.
🥓 Pro Tips
- Use 80/20 ground beef for a juicy, flavorful pie.
- Cook the bacon until crisp so it adds a nice texture.
- For an extra cheesy version, add a little mozzarella alongside the cheddar.
- Don’t overbake—the center should be just set to keep the pie tender.
- For a stricter carnivore version, use only beef, bacon, eggs, cheese, heavy cream, and salt, omitting the plant-based seasonings.
