Can you put frozen vegetables in a pie?

You can use frozen vegetables, but you must thaw and drain them completely first. Frozen broccoli and spinach hold a massive amount of ice crystals. If you add them directly from the freezer, they will weep water during baking and ruin the self-crusting batter. Thaw them in a sieve, press out the liquid, and pat dry.

How to make an impossible pie?

To make an impossible vegetable pie, you mix eggs, milk, and a baking mix like Bisquick to create a thin batter. Pour this batter over sautéed vegetables and grated cheese in a greased pie plate. The batter sinks and forms a crust as it bakes at 400°F, then finishes at 350°F until golden.

What does Impossible Pie taste like?

An impossible vegetable pie tastes like a cross between a savory quiche and a thick slice of cornbread. The bottom layer is creamy and dense with melted cheese and tender vegetables, while the top layer is a soft, savory crust that soaks up the flavors of the filling.

Can I make impossible vegetable pie without Bisquick?

Yes, you can make it without Bisquick. Combine one cup of all-purpose flour, one and a half teaspoons of baking powder, and half a teaspoon of salt to replace the Bisquick. Cut in two tablespoons of cold butter to mimic the fat in the commercial mix. Add the dry mixture to your eggs and milk as normal.
