Ingredients
- 2 Tablespoons melted butter for pan
- 1 ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 1 Tablespoon baking powder
- ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup milk buttermilk is best, but any milk works too
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup unsalted butter melted
- ¾ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 jalapeños seeded and diced
- ½ cup cheddar cheese shredded
- 2 teaspoons minced onion
Instructions
- In a large bowl combine all ingredients. Stir until blended. Allow to sit about 5 minutes in bowl.
- Butter 9-inch round cake pan with 2 Tablespoons melted butter. Pour batter into pan.
- 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.
