Beef Tamale Pie
Beef Tamale Pie has a corn muffin bottom, topped with red enchilada sauce, ground beef with onions and green peppers then all that covered with cheese.
This is another cooking class recipe so pictures were taken quickly. This was made in an aluminum pan so we could take it home. I don’t care for green peppers so this was given to my husband and he loved it!
Ingredients
In a small bowl add the muffin mix,
sour cream, butter and egg.
Stir just until combined, do not overmix.
Add the corn and combine.
Spray a large cast iron pan or
oven safe dish with cooking oil.
Due to the cooking class we
had to use an aluminum pan.
Pour muffin mixure into the prepared
pan and bake for 20 minutes in a
preheated 400 degree oven. Corn
muffin should be golden brown and
cooked through. Let cool in the pan.
In a large frying pan over medium heat,
cook the ground beef, onions and green
pepper until no pink remains in ground
beef and vegetables are tender.
Add the garlic and cook until you
can smell the garlic, about a minute.
Drain the fat and add the ketchup,
brown sugar, vinegar and seasonings.
Bring to a simmer. Simmer for 5 minutes
or until the liquid is absorbed.
Using the handle end of a small
wooden spoon, poke holes into
the cooled corn muffin bottom.
Pour enchilada sauce over the top.
Top with the ground beef mixture.
Top with 1 cup of cheddar cheese.
Cover with foil and bake in a
preheated 400 degree oven for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil and add 1 cup of Monterey
Jack cheese then broil until the cheese melts.

I’m saving this one for later. We are having a neighborhood block party in the future and this would be a perfect dish to bring. Thank you Diane.
This sounds really good!
I didn’t taste it because the my cooking class partner wouldn’t leave the green peppers out (yuck) so I gave it to my hubby and he loved it. Now I want to make it again, without green pepper! Thanks Michelle!
Yum! Yum! Yum! I haven’t had tamales since I was a teenager off a street vendor.
This is an easy way to make them. Thanks Robin!
