CHEDDAR CORNBREAD



Cheddar Cornbread image

Baking the cornbread in a preheated cast-iron skillet gives it a crisp brown crust and a moist interior.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes     Bread Recipes

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup all-purpose flour, (spooned and leveled)
1 cup stone-ground yellow cornmeal
3 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
1 1/2 cups low-fat buttermilk
2 large eggs
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (4 ounces)
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking soda, salt, and pepper; make a well in center of flour mixture. Add buttermilk and eggs to well, and whisk to loosen eggs. Gently incorporate dry ingredients, then mix in cheese.
  • Place butter in a 9-inch cast-iron skillet; bake until butter is melted. Remove from oven, and tilt to coat bottom and sides.
  • Pour batter into prepared skillet; bake until golden and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cornbread cool in skillet at least 15 minutes before cutting. Serve warm or at room temperature. Wrap completely cooled bread in plastic, and store at room temperature up to 1 day.

Tips:

  • Use fresh corn kernels: Fresh corn kernels give the cornbread a sweeter, more flavorful taste. If you don't have fresh corn, you can use frozen or canned corn, but be sure to drain it well before adding it to the batter.
  • Use a cast-iron skillet: A cast-iron skillet distributes heat evenly, resulting in a crispy outer crust and a moist, tender interior. If you don't have a cast-iron skillet, you can use a 9-inch square baking pan, but the cornbread may not be as crispy.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in a tough, dense cornbread. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the cornbread rest before serving: Letting the cornbread rest for 10 minutes before serving allows it to set and develop its full flavor.

Conclusion:

Cheddar cheese cornbread is a delicious, versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it sweet or savory, cheesy or spicy, there's a cheddar cheese cornbread recipe out there for you. So next time you're looking for a side dish that's both delicious and easy to make, give cheddar cheese cornbread a try. You won't be disappointed!
