Tamale Pie:

Ingredients:

Cornbread topping:

3/4 cup cornmeal

1 1/4 cup all purpose flour

1 cup milk

1/4 cup sugar

1 egg

1 teaspoon baking powder

 

The Filling:

 

1 pound ground beef, browned and drained

1 (15-ounce) can drained and rinsed black beans

1 (14.5-ounce) can fire roasted tomatoes
1 (15-ounce) can drained corn

1 tablespoon chili powder

1 teaspoon cumin

1/2 teaspoon paprika

1/4 cup diced onion

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

The Directions:

Spray your crockpot with cooking spray. Dump in the filling ingredients and stir well to distribute the spices. Make sure that the spices aren’t clumped up.

In a separate bowl, mix together the cornbread topping. When finished, pour evenly over the filling, spreading with a spatula if needed.

Cover and cook on low for 4-7 hours or on high for 2-4. This does cook pretty quickly!
