Preparation

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray or butter; set aside.
To make the taco beef, heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium heat, then add the beef and taco seasoning and stir to combine. Cook, stirring to break up the beef, until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
To prepare the cheddar sweet corn, in a medium bowl, stir to combine the milk, egg, 1 cup corn kernels, shredded cheddar, shredded monterey jack, breadcrumbs and sliced scallions; set aside.
For the panko cheese topping, in a small bowl, stir to combine the panko, melted butter, cheddar cheese, monterey jack cheese, salt and pepper; set aside.
To make the cornbread, in a large bowl, stir to combine the cornbread muffin mix, eggs, milk, cream style corn, corn kernels and scallions. Pour half of the batter into the pie plate, then top with 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese and 1/2 cup shredded monterey jack cheese. Pour remaining batter over and top with sliced jalapenos and another layer of 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese and 1/2 cup shredded monterey jack cheese.
Bake for 5 minutes, then top the pie with the taco beef, then the cheddar sweet corn, then the panko cheese topping. Bake until the pie is set and the top is golden and crisp, about 35-40 minutes.
Let cool 15 minutes then slice into wedges to serve.
