Beefy Jalepeno Corn Bake

By kayjayjohnson

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 2 eggs
• 1 can (14-3/4 ounces) cream-style corn
• 1 cup milk
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 1 cup cornmeal
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 4 cups (16 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese, divided
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 4 jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped

Preparation

Step 1

In a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain and set aside. In a large bowl, beat eggs, corn, milk and oil. Combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder and salt; add to egg mixture and mix well.

Pour half of the batter into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Sprinkle with 2 cups cheese; top with the beef, onion and jalapenos. Sprinkle with remaining cheese; top with remaining batter.

Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into corn bread topping comes out clean. Serve warm. Refrigerate any leftovers.
