Amanda's Sourdough Impossible Pie

Submitted by letarr

"I am always on the lookout for new sourdough recipes and was tickled when I found this 10Apr11 post by one of my favorite keep-it-basic bloggers, Amanda, at http://mandyskitchen.wordpress.com. Remember Bisquick or Krusteaz Impossible Pie? Well, this is just as simple but far tastier! The batter with cheese on top forms a crisp crust that reveals a delicious moist bread just beneath the surface. I mixed about 1/2 tsp crumbled rosemary into the batter. For the filling I used a single layer of Sweet Italian Sausage (sliced first into small rounds and fried until nearly fully cooked) topped with ratatouille (http://www.food.com/recipe/ratatouille-in-the-crock-pot-52757). The only adjustment I made was that I cut the grated cheese back to just a light sprinkling."
