Loaded Pumpkin Cornbread

This Mess Is Ours

This savory pumpkin cornbread is topped with some of my favorite flavors - red onions, Cotija cheese and lots of pepitas! Fair warning though, the smell as this bad boy cooks away in the oven is straight up intoxicating.

This recipe was great. My cornbread looked like the picture which usually does't happen! It was delicious.
