Chili in Edible Cornbread Bowls

Chili in Edible Cornbread BowlsLooking for a unique way to enjoy your chili? Skip the regular bowls and serve it out of edible cornbread bowls instead!

This recipe is also perfect if you’d like to eat your chili as more of an appetizer than a full meal.

The cornbread bowls are made using a Bake-a-Bowl Pan that’s actually meant for baking brownie bowls. Oddly enough though out of all the crazy concoctions I’ve made using the pan so far I’ve never once actually used it for brownies.

Aside from cornbread bowls the pan can also be used to make biscuit bowls, hash brown bowls, chocolate chip cookie bowls, cinnamon roll bowls and even macaroni and cheese bowls. In fact you might as well just click here and check out all the crazy stuff I’ve made with it so far. The possibilities are pretty much endless….

I’ve included my go-to chili recipe below, but it doesn’t include beans which I know is almost sacrilegious for some people when it comes to chili, so if you’ve got a chili recipe that you prefer then by all means feel free to use that one instead. Or you could just take my recipe and add some beans to it. You do you.

If you want to save a little bit of time you could also use boxed cornbread mix instead of the cornbread recipe below, but if you’re already making homemade chili anyway then spending an extra five minutes to make the cornbread mix yourself is nothing. Or, if you don’t want chili at all you could fill your cornbread bowls with pulled pork, macaroni and cheese and coleslaw!
