• 1 cup Canned black beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 medium Chopped green bell pepper
• 1 medium Diced onion
• 1.5 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh cilantro
• 0.75 cup All-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups Milk
• 3 units Large eggs
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Chili powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray.

Step 2

Spread the cooked shredded chicken evenly over the bottom of the pie dish.

Distribute the corn, black beans, green bell pepper, and diced onion evenly over the chicken layer.

Sprinkle 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese on top of the vegetables, reserving the remaining 1/2 cup for later.

Step 5

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, eggs, baking powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper until smooth. This will form your ‘impossible’ batter.

Step 6

Pour the batter evenly over the filling in the pie dish, ensuring it covers the ingredients completely.

Step 7

Bake the pie in the middle rack of the oven for 35 minutes, or until the top is set and starting to turn golden.

Step 8

Remove the pie from the oven and sprinkle the reserved 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese on top.

Step 9

Return the pie to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
