Jalapeño Cornbread
If you love a little spicy kick than this is the cornbread for you! This Jalapeño Cornbread has a lot less sugar than typical cornbread recipes which makes it great for serving with all kinds of soups and stews. If you want it sweeter, just drizzle on some honey! The heat with the sweet is so yummy!
How to make Jalapeño Cornbread:
Place a little oil in a cast iron skillet and let the pan heat up in the oven as it comes to temperature. In a large mixing bowl, mix together the dry ingredients- flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Add the liquid ingredients to the mixing bowl and then mix with a whisk until combined. Fold in 1 cup cheese, corn, and diced jalapeños. When the oven is up to temperature and the batter is ready, take the skillet out of the oven, rotate the pan so the oil greases the sides. Pour the batter into the skillet and top with additional jalapeño slices and remaining cheese. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before slicing.
What if I don’t have a cast iron skillet?
You can bake this in a regular 9×9 inch baking pan or glass baking dish. Just grease the inside of the pan with cooking spray, shortening, or butter, pour in the batter and then bake as directed.
I don’t have buttermilk. What should I use?
You can make your own buttermilk! Pour 1 tablespoon vinegar or fresh squeezed lemon into a 1 cup liquid measuring cup. Add a scant cup of milk (the higher the fat content, the better) to reach the 1 cup measuring line. If you don’t have those ingredients you can substitute it with ¾ cup sour cream or plain yogurt (can be Greek) mixed with ¼ cup water.
