This is my take on a great recipe for skillet cornbread pizza from Martha White. Sure, it’s not really a pizza, but it has the flavors of one. It’s a really fun twist on the ‘usual’ pizza. You can add pretty much the same ingredients you’d find on any pizza. Since there’s no sauce on top, just serve the slices with a little (warmed) pizza sauce on the side for dipping.
A Fun Take On Pizza
You get a good little crunch off the cornbread if you let it get good and browned (not burned!) on the sides and bottom. I think these are rather fun to eat. And they’re mighty easy to make. Skillet cornbread pizza is a really tasty alternative to boring frozen pizza night!
