Cajun Crawfish Cornbread

More and more Cajun families are combining cuisines to make wonderful meals for families. Our author write “We make this cornbread for every holiday, every special occasion and just whenever we crave it. Where other Mexican corn breads are dry, this cornbread is very moist and delicious. It is a real crowd pleaser.”

Ingredients

  • 2 boxes Jiffy corn bread
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 onion chopped

  • 1 pound Louisiana crawfish cut in half and seasoned.

Directions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375.

Step 2

Spray 11x13 glass baking pan with Pam. Mix all ingredients in a bowl and pour into the pan.

Step 3
