Then let it cook for a few hours on high. About 3 and a half in the crock pot casserole slow cooker. If you're using a 4-quart crock pot the cooking time will be longer because the cornbread topping is going to be thicker and need longer to cook through.
If you're using a 6-quart crock pot the cooking time will be about the same. Don't forget to add a couple of layers of paper towels to the top regardless of which size crock pot you are using to keep the cornbread from getting soggy.
Once the cornbread has cooked add a layer of cheese to the top, replace the lid and allow the cheese to melt. Serve immediately.

I know I can double the filling, but can I double the cornbread?

I'm not sure if the cornbread would cook all the way through if it was doubled.

I can't say I'm a great cook, but I saw this and gave it a shot last night. I forgot the paper towels for the crock pot, so the cornbread was a little more wet than I would have preferred, but it still tasted good. I also tried the mexican blend of cheeses from Walmart since I had that in the fridge, instead of the pepper jack and cheddar. I would have give this recipe 5 stars if there was a rating bar on the page. Thanks for posting!
