BEER, BACON, AND CHEDDAR CORN BREAD



Beer, Bacon, and Cheddar Corn Bread image

From the cookbook The Gourmet's Guide to Cooking With Beer by Alison Boteler. I left the bacon out when I made it, but I definitely think it would have added something extra. I used reduced fat cheddar cheese and it was delish.

BACON CORNBREAD WITH CHEDDAR AND SCALLIONS



Bacon Cornbread With Cheddar and Scallions image

This cornbread hits all the notes, but skews particularly salty and savory, thanks to sautéed scallions, extra-sharp Cheddar, and bacon, folded into the batter and crowning the top of the cornbread. You can use fancy, thick-cut bacon or flimsier thin-cut varieties. Each has its benefits: Thinner bacon slices form a light, crunchy layer on the crust, while thick-cut slices have more presence in the cornbread. This cornbread belongs at brunch, where it pairs well with eggs cooked in any style, sautéed vegetables and even breakfast sausages, but it would also be at home next to a bowl of chili. If preparing for a crowd, you can bake this off a day in advance and reheat it in the oven just before serving.

Time 2h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

12 slices thick-cut bacon (about 1 pound)
1/4 cup plus 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 cups chopped scallions (from about 4 bunches)
Kosher salt
Butter, for greasing the pan
1 cup medium-grind stone-ground cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 cup whole milk
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon honey
8 ounces extra-sharp Cheddar, grated (about 2 cups)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place a wire cooling rack on top of the baking sheet and arrange the bacon on the rack. Bake until the bacon is crisp, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool. Set 5 bacon strips aside, then chop remaining bacon into small pieces.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a medium skillet over medium. Add the chopped scallions, sprinkle with a small pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the scallions are browned in spots, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
  • Grease a round 8-inch springform pan or cake pan with butter. In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. Add the milk, egg, honey and 1/4 cup olive oil and whisk until smooth. Stir in the chopped bacon, scallions and cheddar cheese. Pour the batter into the prepared pan; use a spoon to spread the batter into an even layer.
  • Arrange the remaining bacon strips on top of the batter, trimming them as necessary, then bake until the cornbread is browned and firm in the center, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then run a kitchen knife around the edges of the pan to loosen. Cut into pieces and serve warm.

CHEDDAR BEER CORNBREAD



Cheddar Beer Cornbread image

Cheese. Beer. Cornbread. Need I say more? (Oh - I guess I'll add two more words: "Unbelievably easy.")

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup 1 stick unsalted butter
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup cornmeal
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 cup plus 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (divided)
One 12-ounce bottle good-quality beer (I use Blue Moon wheat beer for this recipe, and it's perfect)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Place the stick of butter in an 8-inch by 8-inch baking dish and place it in the preheating oven just until the butter melts.
  • Carefully remove the baking dish from the oven and remove six tablespoons of the melted butter. Set aside.
  • Swirl the pan to distribute the remaining two tablespoons of butter.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, dry mustard, and smoked paprika. Sprinkle in 1 cup of the cheddar cheese and whisk until blended.
  • Pour the beer over the flour mixture and stir until just blended. The dough will be wet, loose, and sticky.
  • Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup cheese over the top.
  • Pour the dough into the buttered 8-inch by 8-inch baking dish and spread evenly.
  • Pour the six tablespoons of melted butter over the top.
  • Bake for about 25 minutes until the middle is set and the top begins to turn golden brown.

Tips:

  • Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet. This will help the cornbread cook evenly and develop a crispy crust.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the cornbread tough.
  • Let the cornbread rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help it set and make it easier to slice.
  • Serve the cornbread warm with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include honey, butter, and chili.

Conclusion:

This beer bacon cheddar cornbread is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is moist, flavorful, and has a crispy crust. The bacon and cheddar add a savory touch, while the beer adds a slight sweetness and depth of flavor. This cornbread is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
