Easy 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.

The Secret to the Slice

Drain the meat before it goes in the crust. A wet filling sinks the base, and the wedge will not hold the way it does in the photo. Pepperoni goes on last, on top of the cheese. That is what cups and colors. Under the cheese it steams flat.

Frequently Asked Questions ❓

Can I use sweet Italian sausage? 🌭

No. It has sugar and misses the card. Use a sausage with no added sugar.

Why did the slice fall apart? 🧀

The meat was not drained, or the pie was cut hot. Drain it, then rest 5 minutes.

Can I freeze it? 🧊

Yes, in slices. Reheat in a pan or the oven so the crust sets again. The microwave makes the cheese run.
