How to Make Spicy Italian Sausage Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Place pie crust in a 9-inch pie pan. Gently press into the bottom and up the sides.
  3. Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork several times to prevent air bubbles.
  4. Line the crust with aluminum foil, ensuring it covers the bottom and sides.
  5. Bake for 10 minutes.
  6. Remove from oven and carefully remove the foil.
  7. Return to the oven and bake until the crust is lightly golden brown, about 7 minutes.
  8. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
  9. While the crust bakes, heat a large skillet over medium heat.
  10. Add the Italian sausage, crumbling it as it cooks. Cook until browned and thoroughly cooked, breaking it up with a spoon.
  11. Add the chopped bell pepper and onion to the skillet. Stir in the oregano, basil, and black pepper.
  12. Cook until the onions are softened and translucent, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  13. Spoon the sausage mixture into the partially baked pie crust.
  14. Sprinkle evenly with mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
  15. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.
  16. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage filling.
  17. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the egg mixture is set, puffed, and golden brown.
  18. Let cool for at least 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
