Pi Day 2015 Breakfast Pie

Since it’s Pi day, I’ll share breakfast/brunch pie I made this morning.

Ingredients:

  • 1lb sausage (your choice of flavor and heat)
  • 1-1 1/2 cup shredded cheese
  • 1 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 1/4 cup Bisquick
  • 8-inch or 10-inch cast iron skillet

Directions:

Brown sausage in separate frying pan and drain.

Take a little sausage grease and liberally wipe down the inside of the cast iron skillet.

Put the cast iron in the oven and preheat oven to 375. You want the cast iron to be hot when you start cooking.

Mix 1/2cup of Bisquick and 1/2 cup milk and two eggs in a bowl. When oven is preheated and sausage is browned, take out the skillet and pour the mix straight into the cast iron. This layer of mix will form a pie-crust like layer in the bottom of the cast iron, and will cook in the skillet while you mix the next steps.

Mix the rest of Bisquick and milk (3/4 cups each) and remaining egg in the bowl. Add the cheese and browned, drained sausage to the bowl and mix.

Pour the mix on top of the first layer in the skillet and smooth out. Put the skillet back into the oven for 30 min.

Use a toothpick to make sure the pie is done.

Makes a sausagey, cheesey meal.
