Mexican Cornbread image

I took the best parts of a few different cornbread recipes, and this is the result. Wonderful and moist, it's a great complement to any chili or stew (such as my recipe for Green Chile Pork Stew). Sorry, not for the calorie counters among us (unless you gather a group and cut it into small slivers to serve).

Time 1h15m

Yield 1 12inch pan, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup melted butter
1 cup sugar
4 eggs
1 (15 ounce) can cream-style corn
1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilies
1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese (may use Monterey Jack or sharp cheddar instead)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup yellow cornmeal
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
  • Lightly grease a 12-inch cast iron skillet (a 9x13-inch baking dish works too, but you won't get the same crust).
  • In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar together.
  • Add eggs one at a time, beating after each addition.
  • Mix in corn, chilies and cheese.
  • In a separate bowl, mix flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt.
  • Add flour mixture to cheese mixture, taking care not to overmix (overmixing makes for tougher cornbread).
  • The batter doesn't have to be totally smooth.
  • Pour batter into greased pan, and bake in preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
  • Serve warm for best crust.
