Pie Crust

Method

Preparing the Pie Crust

  1. 1

    Crush the Pretzel Bites

    In a food processor, pulse the pretzel bites until they are finely crushed.

  2. 2

    Mix Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed pretzel bites, melted butter, and flour. Mix until a dough forms.

  3. 3

    Shape the Crust

    Press the pretzel dough into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish evenly to form the crust.

  4. 4

    Pre-Bake the Crust

    Place the crust in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake for 10 minutes until slightly golden. Remove from oven and set aside.

Cooking the Filling

  1. 5

    Caramelize the Onions

    In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the sliced onion. Cook for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and caramelized. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  2. 6

    Cook the Steak

    In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and raise the heat to medium-high. Add the thinly sliced sirloin steak, salt, and black pepper; cook for 3-4 minutes until browned but still tender. Remove from heat.

  3. 7

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large bowl, mix the cooked steak, caramelized onions, mac sauce, and chopped chives until well combined.

Assembling and Baking the Pie

  1. 8

    Fill the Crust

    Pour the steak and onion mixture into the pre-baked pretzel crust, spreading it evenly.

  2. 9

    Top with Cheese

    Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the top of the filling.

  3. 10

    Bake the Pie

    Bake in the preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Let it cool slightly before slicing.
