Cornbread is almost a tradition itself in the South. We especially love this coveted baked goodness around the holiday season. Most of us have a family-favorite recipe or preferred brand we always use. Well, whatever your family’s choice is, you’re going to want to have extra around this year to make this Cheesy Sausage Cornbread Pie! It’s simply “aMAIZEing.”
Cheesy Sausage Cornbread Pie
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350. Spray a deep dish pie plate with cooking spray.
- Brown Swaggerty’s Farm Sausage, crumbling into small pieces, until fully cooked.
- In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, chopped chives, nutmeg, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt & pepper until well mixed.
- Place sausage crumbles and cornbread in a large bowl and pour the egg mixture over. Add half the cheddar & parmesan cheeses. Gently toss together to combine. Pour the mixture into the deep dish pie plate.
- Sprinkle on the remaining cheeses and top with the red bell pepper pieces.
- Bake for 45 minutes or until the middle is set and the cheese is golden brown. Remove and let sit for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
*If the top of the pie starts to brown before the middle has set, cover the dish loosely with foil. Adjust for your oven.
