Instructions

  1. In a large bowl combine all ingredients. Stir until blended. Allow to sit about 5 minutes in bowl.
  2. Butter 9-inch round cake pan with 2 Tablespoons melted butter. Pour batter into pan.
  3. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 20-22 minutes. Serve immediately or cooled to room temperature.

Notes

  • Serve warm or room temperature. Jalapeno Cheddar Cornbread tastes delicious both ways so feel free to cut up a big slice while it’s still fresh from the oven!
  • Don’t make it too far ahead of time. Cornbread tastes best eaten the same days it’s made, or up to a day later. After a couple of days it starts to taste stale.
  • Butter generously. I use a full 2 tablespoons of melted butter to coat the bottom of my cake pan. It doesn’t just keep cornbread from sticking—it helps brown the bottom of the bread with rich buttery flavor.
  • See blog post for more recipe tips and tricks.
