Ingredients
spoon bread
- 7 tablespoons unsalted butter melted and divided
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1 1/2 cups whole milk
- 2 large eggs
- 6 ounces shredded cheddar cheese (by weight)
- 2 jalapeños seeded and diced
- 3 thinly sliced green onions divided
garnishes
- 3 1/2 tablespoons honey divided
- 2 teaspoons sea salt flakes divided
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Brush a 8” x 8” baking dish with 1 tablespoon butter and set aside.
- In a mixing bowl whisk together flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add milk and eggs and whisk together.
- Stir in remaining butter until well combined.
- Fold in cheese, jalapenos and 2 thinly sliced green onions.
- Pour mixture into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 28 to 30 minutes or until just set in the center. Allow to cool for 5 to 7 minutes.
- Scoop into bowls and top with a drizzle of honey, some sliced green onions and a sprinkle of sea salt flakes. Serve.
Notes
- Storing and Reheating Leftovers
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- To reheat, bake the spoon bread in an oven preheated to 350°F for 5 minutes or until warm. The second best (but easier) method is to warm leftovers in the microwave in a covered dish for 45-60 seconds, or until warm.
