Jalapeno Cornbread

5 / 5 (1 reviews)

This savory spicy cornbread is a balance of sweet, savory and spicy without being over the top.I use a cast iron skillet to get a golden brown crust on the bottom but you can easily use a 8-inch or 9-inch square baking pan instead. Just melt the butter in a small saucepan or in the microwave and brush it all over the inside of the pan, the pour the batter into it and bake as directed.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat an oven to 350°F.

  2. Place the cornmeal, flour, sugar (if using), baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl. Using a balloon whisk, stir the ingredients together until they are uniform in color and well blended.

  3. Place the buttermilk, oil, and egg in a medium sized bowl. Stir with a whisk until combined and smooth.

  4. Make a “well” in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet ingredients into it. Slowly fold together the ingredients with a large spatula, stirring until the dry ingredients are mostly absorbed but there are a few dry spots.

  5. Add half the cheese, the white and light green part of the green onions, and the minced jalapenos. Gently fold the ingredients in. Do not overmix.

This recipe REALLY works!! Cast iron skillet is the way to go. Extra Jalapeños wouldn’t hurt. Butter is good but Bacon Drippings may be an idea
