Stuffed Cornbread Recipes

Steps:

• Brown ground beef with a little onion and garlic powder, if desired. Drain well & set aside.
• Mix cornmeal, canned corn, sugar, onion, 2 cups shredded cheese, oil, eggs, milk, and Rotel.
• Pour half of cornmeal mixture into a 13 x 9 pan sprayed with Pam.
• Sprinkle browned ground beef on top of cornmeal mixture, and top with thinly sliced Velveeta, if desired. (Adding Velveeta will make a really cheesy casserole.).
• Top with remaining cornmeal mixture.
• Sprinkle remaining 1 cup cheese on top.
• Bake at 350 for one hour.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°.
• Grease a 10-inch iron skillet and set aside.
• In another skillet, scramble and fry sausage and onion together till sausage is browned (drain grease).
• In a large bowl, combine well the eggs, cornmeal mix, corn, sour cream, milk and oil.
• Using greased iron skillet, pour half of the cornmeal mixture into the skillet and then sprinkle the sausage mixture over the cornmeal batter. Sprinkle the cheese over the sausage. Then pour the remaining half of the cornmeal mixture over all that.
• Bake for 35 to 40 minutes at 425°. Let stand 10 minutes and enjoy.

Steps:

• For the sweet potato pie filling: Boil the sweet potato whole in a saucepan in enough water to cover until tender when pierced, 20 to 25 minutes. Peel and slice.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 12-inch cast-iron skillet with cooking spray.
• Combine the sweet potato, sugar, butter, cream, orange juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla and egg in a food processor. Pulse until the mixture is smooth and no lumps remain. Set aside.
• Make the cornbread: Combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk together the buttermilk, egg, butter and oil in a separate bowl. Add the buttermilk mixture to the flour mixture, stirring just until the dry ingredients are moistened. (The batter will be lumpy and thick.)
• Pour the cornbread batter into the greased skillet. Spoon the sweet potato pie filling over the top in dollops. Use a wooden or metal skewer to create a marbling effect. (But do not mix in the sweet potato filling too much.)
• Bake the cornbread until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 7 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet on the stovetop over medium heat. Add 1/4 cup butter and allow to melt while you begin to prepare the batter. Reserve the melted butter for later use, carefully wipe out the pan and place in the oven to heat.
• In a large bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda. In another bowl, combine the milk, buttermilk, egg and melted butter. Make a well in the dry ingredients and gradually incorporate the wet mixture, stirring until the lumps are dissolved. Fold in the cheese, corn and poblanos.
• To bake the cornbread, carefully remove the skillet from the oven and add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter so it sizzles. Coat the pan with the butter and quickly pour the cornbread batter into the skillet. Place the skillet in the oven and bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a bowl, mix flour and salt. Pour in water and mix with a spoon until the dough comes together. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest for 5 minutes. Remove dough from bowl and knead for about 5 minutes moistening your hands and the board with water as you work. (Kneading in the additional moisture is an important step in making a tender arepa.) The dough should be smooth and not crack around the edges; it should be moist but not sticky. Form into disks about 3-inches around and 1/2-inch thick. (The disks can be wrapped tightly in plastic wrap at this point and cooked later.) Add the oil to a non-stick pan over medium heat and cook arepas on each side just until a crust forms. Do not let brown. Place on an ungreased baking sheet and bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until the arepas make a hollow sound when tapped. Open a slit in 1 side of the arepa to make a pocket (or slice in half). Arepas can be stuffed with meat, beans and plantains or your favorite filling.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425. Spray 13X9 pan with oil.
• Brown meat with onion and bell pepper in skillet. Add salt and pepper to taste. Drain and set aside.
• Pour half of the cornbread batter into the pan. Place 6 slices of American cheese over batter.
• Spread meat over cheese evenly. Add jalapeno slices if desired.
• Top with remaining slices of cheese. Pour the rest of the batter on top.
• Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until brown on top. Let cool for about 10 minutes. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500 degrees. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add onion and diced celery and saute until softened, 8 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds; season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat, add broth and cornbread, and stir until combined. Mince 4 shrimp (discard tails) and stir into stuffing along with egg.
• Run a paring knife from head to tail along the backs of remaining shrimp, slicing almost completely through. Open, then remove vein with knife. Pack each with about 2 tablespoons stuffing. Brush a rimmed baking sheet with oil and arrange shrimp, stuffing side up. Bake until stuffing is golden and shrimp are opaque throughout, 18 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toss together sliced celery, lettuce, dressing, and blue cheese. Serve alongside shrimp.
