Deep Hamburger Sausage and Pepperoni Pie
Ground beef, sausage, and pepperoni in a cheese crust — ready in 40 minutes.
This is the pie in the glass dish. A pale crust, a thick layer of beef and sausage, melted cheese pulling at the cut, and pepperoni baked on top. No wheat crust. No sugar in the sauce. One slice is about 380 calories, 32g protein, and 6g net carbs. The missing wedge in the photo is one serving, not a taste.
Use lean beef and a pork sausage you have checked. A sweet Italian sausage has sugar and misses the card. The crust is mozzarella and almond flour, pressed into the dish, not a pastry shell. It bakes under the meat and stays pale at the edge, the way the cut side looks.
Pepperoni goes on at the end, not under the cheese. Under the cheese it steams and curls into the filling. On top it cups and crisps, which is the top in the photo. Rest the pie 5 minutes before you cut it, or the cheese runs and the slice does not hold.

Ingredients
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 375°F. Grease a 9-inch pie dish.
- Melt 1 1/2 cups mozzarella with the cream cheese. Stir in the egg and almond flour until it forms a dough. Press it into the dish and up the sides.
- Brown the beef and sausage together. Drain the fat. Stir in the sauce, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder.
- Spread the meat over the crust. Cover with 1 cup mozzarella. Lay the pepperoni on top.
- Bake 22 to 25 minutes, until the pepperoni cups and the cheese is bubbling.
- Rest 5 minutes. Cut into 6 slices. One slice is a serving.
Notes & Tips
- No-sugar sausage and no-sugar sauce. Sweet Italian sausage misses the card.
- Drain the meat. A wet filling sinks the crust and the slice will not hold.
- Pepperoni on top, not under the cheese. That is the cupped top in the photo.
- Rest 5 minutes before cutting, or the cheese runs out of the wedge.
- Fridge, covered, up to 4 days. Reheat a slice in a pan so the crust stays set.
- Per slice, estimate: 380 calories, 32g protein, 6g net carbs, 26g fat.
