Cheese Pie Recipe
Cheese pie is a delicious, savory "pie" made with eggs, cheese, and a few seasonings. This makes a tasty side dish, breakfast, or even meal. Cheese pie is similar to a quiche without the crust.
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 3 cups shredded cheese Like colby/jack, triple cheddar, mild cheddar, monterey jack
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 2 tabelspoons flour
- 1 cup milk
- 4 eggs
- 1 teaspoon dry mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9-inch pie plate with non-stick cooking spray.
- Place the eggs in a large bowl. Whisk until broken up. Pour in the milk, flour, ground mustard, salt, and pepper. Whisk together.
- Stir in the shredded cheese and diced onion. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie plate.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the top starts to turn golden brown.
Notes
- Shred your own cheese. For the best flavor I recommend shredding your own cheese. It also melts better than the packaged cheese.
- Don't overcook. I recommend checking the cheese pie around 20-25 minutes. Look for a golden brown top and no giggle in the middle.
- Let it rest before slicing. Make sure to let the cheese pie slightly cool before cutting.
