Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cheesy Cornbread Cowboy Casserole.
Step 1
Start by heating a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Add the ground beef and cook it for about 5 to 7 minutes, breaking it apart as it browns.
Step 3
Once the beef is nicely cooked, drain any excess grease and return the skillet to the heat.
Step 4
If you’re using onion, toss it into the skillet now and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until it becomes soft and fragrant.
Step 5
While that’s happening, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to get it ready for baking.
Step 6
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornbread mix, milk, and eggs, stirring until everything is well blended.
Step 7
Then, fold in the creamed corn for a delightful sweetness.
Step 8
Now, it’s time to assemble your casserole! Spread the cooked beef mixture evenly across the bottom of a baking dish, and sprinkle a generous layer of shredded Cheddar cheese on top.
Step 9
Pour the cornbread batter over the cheese, making sure to spread it out evenly.
Step 10
Pop the dish into your preheated oven and bake for 17 to 22 minutes, or until the top is beautifully golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 11
If you like, you can spread a little butter over the top for an extra touch of richness.
Step 12
Once it’s out of the oven, let it cool for about 5 minutes before slicing into this comforting dish and serving it up.
Step 13
Enjoy the warm, hearty flavors that will surely bring smiles to your table!.
