Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb ground beef lean
  • 0.5 lb ground pork
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper ground
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary crushed
  • 0.5 tsp cinnamon
  • 0.25 tsp nutmeg
  • 1 pie crust top and bottom, homemade or store-bought
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs fresh
  • 1 egg beaten, for glaze

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef, ground pork, and onion until meat is browned and cooked through. Drain excess fat.
  • Add garlic, salt, pepper, thyme, rosemary, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Remove from heat and stir in breadcrumbs. Allow mixture to cool slightly.
  • Line a pie dish with the bottom crust and fill with the meat mixture.
  • Cover with top crust, seal the edges, and cut slits on top to allow steam to escape. Brush with beaten egg.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, until crust is golden brown.

Notes

Let the pie cool for 10 minutes before serving to allow the juices to be reabsorbed and the filling to set.
