Green Chili Bread

Prepare to have your mind blown!  A sweet bread without the fruit.  Instead, it's loaded with fire roasted hatch chilies.  It's not spicy, but you can taste the chilies.  I dare you to stop at one piece.

  • 3 cups all purpose flour sifted

  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg
  • 1½ cups milk
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 cup roasted peeled and seeded hatch chiles (if you can't get fresh hatch chiles they sell 4 ounce cans of hatch chiles in the market -- you'll need 2 cans.) can substitute roasted poblano, anaheim, or other moderate spice chili pepper.
  • ½ cup pecans or walnuts, chopped

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour 1 large 9 ¼" x 5 ¼" x3" loaf pan or several smaller loaf pans or muffin tins. Set aside.
  2. Add the dry ingredients (flour through salt) to a large bowl and whisk together. Set aside.

  4. Transfer the batter to the baking pan, filling no more than 3/4 of the way up the pan. Bake until a cake tester comes out clean.
  5. For a large loaf pan 9 ¼" x 5 ¼" x3" bake approximately 50-60 minutes
  6. For a medium loaf pan 8 ½" x 4 ½" x 2 ½2" bake approximately 45-50 minutes
  7. For a small loaf pan 5¾" x 3 ¼" x 2 ¼" bake approximately 30-35 minutes
  8. Let bread cool for 15-20 minutes in the pan before turning out on a wire rack to continue cooling, or slice and serve warm with butter.
FOR FIRE ROASTED PEPPERS AT HOME:
    Cup of Yum
  1. If you have a gas stovetop or on your outside barbecue grill, you can place a whole poblano or other pepper directly over the burner to char. Turn the pepper every minute or two with a pair of tongs until blackened and tender. Transfer the pepper to a bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Let the pepper cool to room temperature. Peel off the skins and remove the seeds. Chop to use in the recipe.
