- Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese over the beef layer.
Step 5: Prepare the Batter
In a small bowl, whisk together the Bisquick mix (or flour), milk, and eggs until smooth. Pour the batter over the beef and cheese layers in the pie plate.
Step 6: Bake
Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
