Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    The topping on this spicy casserole bakes up light and tender. If you like a heavy, denser-style cornbread, leave out the baking powder in the topping.
  • tip 2
    Named for the black "eye" on its inner curve, these beans are thought to have been brought to the South during the time of slavery. You'll find them fresh, dried and canned.
