Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Preheat the oven to 400 F.
- Thoroughly grease and flour a 9 × 9-inch baking pan (or use a nonstick baking pan or a flexible silicone pan). Or use a cast-iron skillet.
- Sift together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt.
- Combine the milk, eggs, butter (or shortening) and sugar, if using.
- Add the liquid ingredients to the dry ones and mix just until the flour is moistened, no more than 10 to 15 seconds. Then fold in the corn, diced peppers, and cheese, but don't overmix the batter or the cornbread will be too tough.
- Pour the batter into your prepared pan and bake the cornbread immediately.
- Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cornbread comes out clean and the edges of the cornbread start to separate from the pan.
- Serve and enjoy.

MEXICAN CORN BREAD
I got this recipe from one of DH's family member's cookbook. It sound weird, but was easy and tasted great. I used a 4 ounce can of chopped green chilis instead of the green bell pepper, egg substitute and low fat cottage cheese and low fat sharp cheese.

Tips:
- Use fresh corn: Fresh corn on the cob is essential for the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh corn, you can use frozen corn, but be sure to thaw it completely before using.
- Don't overcook the corn: Overcooked corn will be tough and chewy. Cook the corn just until it is tender, about 5 minutes.
- Use a good quality cotija cheese: Cotija cheese is a salty, crumbly cheese that adds a lot of flavor to the cornbread. Be sure to use a good quality cotija cheese, as the cheaper brands can be bland and flavorless.
- Serve the cornbread warm: Cornbread is best served warm, right out of the oven. You can also reheat it in the oven or microwave, but it will not be as good as when it is fresh.
Conclusion:
Authentic Sweet Mexican Cornbread is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up fresh corn, and it is also a great side dish for grilled meats or fish. So next time you are looking for a new and delicious cornbread recipe, be sure to give this one a try.
