Ingredients
Scale
Meat Mixture
- 1 lb ground beef (or venison burger)
- 1 cup onion (chopped)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Crust and Topping
- 1/3 cup coconut flour
- 3 tablespoons almond flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 4 large eggs
- 1½ cups cheese (shredded)
- 1 tomato (optional)
Instructions
- Cook the beef and onion: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and chopped onion until the meat is fully browned and onions are softened, about 8-10 minutes.
- Prepare the base: Spread the cooked beef and onion mixture evenly in a pie plate and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt to enhance flavor.
- Make the crust mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk together coconut flour, almond flour, baking powder, unsweetened almond milk, and eggs until smooth and well combined.
- Assemble the pie: Pour the egg and flour mixture evenly over the meat layer in the pie plate. Sprinkle about 1 cup of shredded cheese evenly over the top.
- Bake the pie: Place the pie in a preheated oven at 400°F and bake for approximately 25 minutes or until the filling is set and the cheese is melted.
- Add toppings and cheese: Remove the pie from the oven, top with optional fresh tomato slices and the remaining ½ cup shredded cheese for extra flavor and texture.
- Final bake: Return the pie to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes to melt the topping cheese and warm the tomato slices.
Notes
- For a different flavor profile, consider adding pickles, mustard, or sautéed mushrooms as toppings.
- Using venison instead of ground beef provides a leaner alternative with a richer taste.
- This pie is naturally gluten-free due to the use of almond and coconut flour.
- Ensure eggs are well incorporated to get a fluffy crust-like layer.
- Serve warm for best texture and flavor.
