Festive sausage pie, ideal for holiday brunch or late-night cravings.
Ingredients:
  • 1 pound bulk Italian sausage
  • 6 large eggs
  • 5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
  • 0.75 cup ricotta cheese
  • 0.125 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.125 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 (14.1 ounce) package double-crust pie pastry, thawed
  • 1 tablespoon water
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) for the perfect bake.
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the sausage until crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Drain excess grease.
  • Separate one egg, set aside the yolk; beat egg white and remaining eggs in a bowl. Fold in mozzarella cheese, spinach, ricotta cheese, salt, garlic powder, pepper, and sausage.
  • Prepare the pie plate by lining it with bottom pastry and pouring in the filling. Roll out the remaining pastry to cover the top of the pie, then place it over the filling. Seal and flute the edges, cut slits in the pastry. In a small bowl, beat water and the remaining egg yolk, then brush over the top of the pie.
  • Bake in the oven until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbly, for about 50 to 60 minutes. Allow it to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
