Ingredients

FILLING
1/2 lb ground beef
1/3 c onion, finely chopped
dash(es) salt
dash(es) cayenne pepper
1 Tbsp I use a combination dried mixture of red & green bell peppers, granulated garlic, and black pepper, but you could use finely diced small amounts of these.
PASTRY
1 c biscuit/baking mix
1/4 c cornmeal
1/4 c cold butter
2-3 Tbsp hot water
EGG MIXTURE
1 egg
1/4 c whipping cream
1/4 c milk
or you could use 1/2 cup of half and half
TO TOP IT OFF
1/2 c cheddar cheese, finely grated (I used a round of 3 hot pepper cheddar to spice it up)

Steps:

1. Grease a mini muffin pan and heat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Saute the onion, and ground beef until beef is fully cooked. Drain and add the bell peppers, garlic and black pepper, set aside.
3. Make the pastry by blending the biscuit mix and the cornmeal with the butter until it is like fine crumbs. Add water tablespoon at a time until an easy to handle dough. Press into your mini muffin pan, mine only made about 18.
4. Fill with the hamburger mixture.
5. Whip the egg and milk/cream mixture with a fork until it is combined. Spoon into your hamburger filled pies and then top it off with the grated cheese.
6. Cook for about 20 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
