Ingredients

1 pound ground beef
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 cups marinara sauce
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
TOPPING:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 cup 2% milk
1/4 cup butter, melted

Directions

In a large skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add the marinara sauce, salt and pepper; cook and stir for 8-10 minutes or until thickened. Spoon into four 8-oz. ramekins or custard cups; set aside.

In a small bowl, combine the flour, cheese, baking powder, salt and Italian seasoning. Stir in milk and butter just until moistened. Spoon dough over meat mixture; place ramekins on a baking sheet.
Bake at 450° for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
