Pueblo Corn Pie Recipes

PENNSYLVANIA DUTCH CORN PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• In a saucepan over medium heat, stir together the potato, whole kernel corn, creamed corn, hard cooked eggs, salt, pepper and milk. Simmer for about 15 minutes.
• Press one of the pie crusts in to the bottom and up the sides of a 9 inch pie plate. I like to use clear glass so I can check the bottom crust for doneness. Pour the hot filling into the crust. Dot with pieces of butter. Cover with the top crust, and flute the edges to seal. Cut a few slits in the top crust to vent steam. Place on a cookie sheet that has been lined with aluminum foil for easy clean up.
• Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, then reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the crust is browned. Serve hot.

PUEBLO CORN PIE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the onion and sauté until translucent. Add the garlic and bell pepper and continue to sauté until the onion is golden brown.
• Add the corn kernels, pinto beans, tomatoes, and seasonings. Stir well and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. Season to taste with salt. Remove from the heat.
• Bring 5 cups of water to a rolling boil in a heavy saucepan or double boiler. Slowly pour the cornmeal into the water in a thin, steady stream, stirring continuously to avoid lumping. Add the salt and cook over very low heat, covered, for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Preheat the oven to 375°F
• Oil a shallow, 1 1/2-quart baking dish and line the bottom with half of the cooked cornmeal. Pour over it the skillet mixture and sprinkle with the optional grated cheese. Top with the remaining cornmeal, patting it in smoothly.
• Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the cornmeal is golden brown and crusty. Let stand for 10 minutes, then cut into squares to serve.

DEEP DISH PUEBLO PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Lightly grease 10 inch round deep dish pan, skillet or crock pot.
• Arrange 1-2 tortillas to cover bottom of pan. Generously brush tortillas with 1/4 cup enchilada sauce.
• Spread beans over sauce and tortillas followed by half the onions and a third of the cheese.
• Place 2 more tortillas over cheese and again brush with 1/4 cup enchilada sauce.
• Evenly spread sour cream over sauce, place avocado slices over sour cream. Place a third layer of tortillas over avocados, again brush with enchilada sauce.
• Place sliced tomatoes, green chilies, remaining onion and a third of the cheese over tortillas and enchilada sauce. Top with remaining tortillas and spread remaining enchilada sauce to the edges, top with remaining cheese.
• Bake covered for 35 to 40 minutes. Cool 10 to 15 minutes before cutting into wedges.
• If using this recipe in a crock pot cook on low for 2 hours approximately.
