Cheesy Cornbread Pie Recipes

CHEESE CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter an 8-inch square baking pan and set aside.
• Combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, kosher salt, baking powder and baking soda in a large bowl and set aside. Whisk together the butter, buttermilk and eggs in a bowl and stir to combine. Pour the buttermilk mixture into the cornmeal mixture and stir until smooth, then fold in the Cheddar cubes, grated Parmesan and 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25 minutes. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup Cheddar on top of the batter and continue to bake until the cheese is bubbling, the cornbread bounces back when pressed with a finger and a cake tester comes out clean, 10 minutes more.

CHEESY CORNBREAD PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray or butter; set aside.
• To make the taco beef, heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium heat, then add the beef and taco seasoning and stir to combine. Cook, stirring to break up the beef, until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
• To prepare the cheddar sweet corn, in a medium bowl, stir to combine the milk, egg, 1 cup corn kernels, shredded cheddar, shredded monterey jack, breadcrumbs and sliced scallions; set aside.
• For the panko cheese topping, in a small bowl, stir to combine the panko, melted butter, cheddar cheese, monterey jack cheese, salt and pepper; set aside.
• To make the cornbread, in a large bowl, stir to combine the cornbread muffin mix, eggs, milk, cream style corn, corn kernels and scallions. Pour half of the batter into the pie plate, then top with 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese and 1/2 cup shredded monterey jack cheese. Pour remaining batter over and top with sliced jalapenos and another layer of 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese and 1/2 cup shredded monterey jack cheese.
• Bake for 5 minutes, then top the pie with the taco beef, then the cheddar sweet corn, then the panko cheese topping. Bake until the pie is set and the top is golden and crisp, about 35-40 minutes.

MINI CHEESY CORNBREADS

Steps:

• Place four 6 1/2-inch cast-iron skillets in the oven and preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Whisk the cornmeal, sugar, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Add the Parmesan and Cheddar and toss lightly to mix.
• Whisk the buttermilk, melted butter and eggs in a second bowl. Pour into the cornmeal mixture and mix until just combined.
• Carefully remove the skillets from the oven. Divide the remaining 2 tablespoons butter among the skillets and let it melt. Swirl the skillets to coat them with the butter and divide out the batter. Bake the cornbreads until golden on the edges and a tester inserted in the center comes out clean. 14 to 15 minutes. Let cool on a rack.

TOMATO PIE WITH CORNMEAL CRUST

Steps:

• Make the cornmeal crust: Combine the cornmeal, flour and salt in a food processor and pulse until combined. Add the shortening and pulse until the mixture resembles small peas. Add the cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and pulse just until the mixture comes together and forms a dough. Shape the dough into a disc, then wrap with plastic and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• For the filling: Meanwhile, arrange the tomatoes in a single layer on paper towel-lined baking sheets. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Let stand for 30 minutes to allow the water from the tomatoes to release, then pat the tomatoes dry with paper towels.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Roll out the dough out to an 11-inch circle and fit into a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate. Fold the edges under and crimp the edges. Fill the pie crust with parchment paper and pie weights or dried beans. Bake on the bottom rack until the crust is browned and crisp, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven, carefully lift out the parchment and weights and let cool. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
• Sprinkle the tomatoes with the House Seasoning. Layer a third of the tomatoes on the bottom of the crust and sprinkle with a third of the herbs. Top with half of the onion, half of the ham and 1/3 cup Pimiento Cheese. Repeat the layers once. Top with the remaining tomatoes, herbs and remaining 1/3 cup Pimiento Cheese. Bake on the bottom rack until the pie is golden brown and bubbly, about 30 minutes. Let stand 20 minutes before slicing. Garnish with more fresh herbs, if desired.
• Stir together the garlic and onion powders, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container.
• Add the Cheddars, cream cheese, pimientos and mayo to a bowl and mix together. Add the chives, garlic powder, cayenne, smoked paprika and salt and pepper and mix until thoroughly combined.

CHEESY SWEETCORN CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Before you get started, take a look at our weighing and measuring skills guide. Heat the oven to 230C/210C fan/gas 8 and butter a 23cm cake tin or ovenproof frying pan. Tip the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder and 1½ tsp salt into a large bowl. Beat the buttermilk or yogurt, eggs and melted butter together in a small bowl using a fork. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry, then add most of the sweetcorn and most of the cheese (save a handful of each for the top). Mix together with a spatula until just combined.
• Pour the batter into the prepared tin. Sprinkle over the reserved sweetcorn and cheese, then bake for 30 mins until golden and a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean, with no wet batter clinging to it.
• Leave to cool in the tin for 10 mins, then cut into wedges and serve warm. Once completely cool, will keep in an airtight container for two days, or the freezer for a month.
