CHEESY JALAPENO CORNBREAD



Cheesy Jalapeno Cornbread image

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     side-dish

Time 50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup yellow cornmeal
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
Pinch of salt
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup milk
1 whole egg
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup grated Cheddar
1/4 cup shortening
2 tablespoons butter
1 red bell pepper, finely diced
1 fresh jalapeno, seeded and diced
1/2 onion, diced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Stir together.
  • Measure the buttermilk and milk in a measuring cup and add the egg. Stir together with a fork. Add the baking soda and stir. Pour the milk mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir with a fork until combined. Fold in the cheese. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, melt the shortening in the microwave. Slowly add the melted shortening to the batter, stirring until just combined.
  • In an iron skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Saute the peppers and onions until soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Pour the batter into the hot skillet with the veggies. Spread to even out the surface. (Batter should sizzle.)
  • Cook for 1 minute, and then transfer to the oven and bake until golden brown, for 20 to 25 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cornmeal: Use a medium or coarse-ground cornmeal for a more rustic texture, or a fine-ground cornmeal for a smoother texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will result in a tough cornbread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use fresh or frozen corn: Fresh corn on the cob is ideal, but frozen corn can also be used. If using frozen corn, thaw it before using.
  • Add mix-ins: Feel free to add mix-ins to your cornbread batter, such as diced jalapeños, chopped bacon, or shredded cheese.
  • Bake at a high temperature: Cornbread should be baked at a high temperature (400°F or higher) for a crispy crust and a moist interior.

Conclusion:

Jalapeno cornbread is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its slightly spicy flavor and moist, crumbly texture, it is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish, give this jalapeno cornbread recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
