Chili Pot Pie
I love chili so much. It’s one of my favorite meals ever and it’s fun to try new ways to make it! Don’t you think these would also be really great for a Super Bowl party?
Chili Ingredients:
- Ground Beef
- Tomato Sauce
- Kidney Beans
- Chili Seasoning
Cornbread Ingredients:
- Flour
- Sugar
- Cornmeal
- Salt
- Baking Soda
- Buttermilk
- Oil

How To Make A Chili Pot Pie
The first thing to do when making this dish is cook the ground beef thoroughly. Drain it and add the beans, chili seasoning and tomato sauce. Easy so far, right?
To make the cornbread, mix the dry ingredients all together in one bowl, and the wet ingredients in a second bowl. Then, add the wet to the dry.
Get four ramekin dishes and spoon into each, one cup of chili and then half a cup of cornbread batter.
Bake for about 25 minutes and if you want, you can top with cheese and sour cream.
This recipe is for four people which is great for most families. If you need to make more, just double up the recipe.

Looks delicious ! What size dishes are these? I was going to order some off Amazon, but they have different sizes 4, 8 or 12 oz.
Hi Cheri. I’m pretty sure these are 12 ounce.
Can you use the cornbread mix in the box
Hi Norma. Yes, you can use a cornbread mix.
I’m going to have to trying this
You’ll love it!
I used ground turkey, fajita seasoning and Jiffy corn muffin mx. I split the mixture into two 1.5 quart Corningware dishes since I don’t have the ramekins. Baked for 20 minutes and it was terrific! Thank you for a new dish even if I kind of modified it!
Thank Kathy!
Love this. Being single I can freeze this in small dishes for future meals.
Very easy and simple recipes thank you
Thank you Tom!
Awesome
This week I am making this. Chili is delicious all year. I plan on adding grated cheese and a few green Chile’s to the cornbread. Finely diced onions on top of the chili. I love to tweak recipes. I know my husband is going to love this one. Thanks for sharing. **
