Creating Crazy Good Pizza Burger Pie is simple if you follow these steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Cook the Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked. Drain excess fat.
3. Season the Beef: Add the pizza sauce, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to the cooked beef. Stir to combine and remove from heat.
4. Prepare the Dough: Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to fit your pie dish.
5. Assemble the Base: Place the rolled dough into a greased pie dish, pressing it into the bottom and up the sides.
6. Add Beef Mixture: Spoon the beef mixture into the dough-lined dish, spreading it evenly.
7. Layer the Cheese: Sprinkle half of the mozzarella cheese and all of the cheddar cheese over the beef mixture.
8. Add Toppings: If using, layer your choice of optional toppings over the cheese.
9. Top with Cheese: Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese over the top.
10. Cover with Dough: Roll out another piece of pizza dough to cover the top. Pinch the edges to seal the pie.
11. Make Slits: Cut a few slits in the top dough to allow steam to escape.
12. Bake: Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
13. Cool: Remove from the oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
