Jalapeño Cheddar Cornbread
Report
Fantastically fluffy Jalapeño Cheddar Cornbread FTW! This crazy good cornbread gets a leg up from two classic mix-ins: ooey gooey cheddar cheese and fiery jalapeño. The result is a kiss of heat blanketed by cheesy cornbread goodness.

Ingredients
- ½ cup plain greek yogurt
- ½ cup milk
- 1 TBSP vinegar
- ½ tsp baking soda
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup grated cheddar cheese (plus extra for topping)
- ¼ cup chopped fresh jalapeños (approx. 2 medium jalapeños)
- 2 TBSP chopped green onion
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Prep an 8x8 inch square pan by rubbing with butter or coconut oil.
- Combine yogurt, milk, and vinegar. Mix and set aside.
- Combine cornmeal, flour, baking soda, garlic powder, and salt. Mix well and set aside.
- In a large pan or skillet over medium-high heat, melt your butter.
- Once melted, remove from heat and stir in sugar. Whisk until well blended.
- Next, quickly add your eggs and beat until well incorporated.
- Add in milk mixture and stir.
- Add jalapeños, green onion, and cheddar cheese and stir.
- Next add your cornmeal mixture and beat until very few lumps remain.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes. Insert a toothpick in the center to test for doneness. If it comes out clean the cornbread is ready! When it's at the 25 minute mark I like to sprinkle a little extra cheddar on top to get all hot and melty. Optional but delicious!
- Place on a wire cooling rack and allow to cool before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
Notes
- Leftover cornbread can absolutely be frozen for later (woot) or stored on the counter for up to 4 days. I like to microwave leftover cornbread for a few seconds and spread with butter and a drizzle of raw honey. Warm and melty - YUM!
