For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a dollop of sour cream or guacamole on top of each slice before serving. Feel free to customize the taco seasoning and salsa to your preferred level of spiciness. If you don't have corn oil on hand, vegetable oil or olive oil can be used as substitutes. To test if the cornbread is fully cooked, insert a toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean, it's ready.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
10 mins
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef, stirring frequently, until browned and crumbled. This should take about 7-10 minutes. Drain off any excess grease. Stir in the taco seasoning mix until well combined. Add the salsa and black beans; stir to incorporate and then remove from heat.
02
Step
1 mins
Grease a 9-inch pie plate or casserole dish to prevent sticking.
03
Step
3 mins
In a mixing bowl, combine the cornbread mix, milk, egg, honey, and corn oil. Whisk until the batter is smooth, then gently fold in the corn. Pour the cornbread batter into the prepared pie plate, spreading evenly.
04
Step
2 mins
Carefully layer the ground beef mixture over the cornbread batter, ensuring an even distribution. Sprinkle the shredded Cheddar cheese over the beef layer, and top with the partially crushed corn chips.
05
Step
35 mins
Place the taco pie in a cold oven. Then, heat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the sides are golden brown and the cornbread is cooked through.
