Ingredients

Servings
  • ½ cup LA LACHERA Sweetened Condensed Milk (14 oz. can)
  • 2, Jalapeno peppers seeded and chopped
  • 1 cup corn kernels, fresh or frozen
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • cup white sugar (organic for vegan-friendly)
  • 4 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 egg beaten
  • ½ cup water
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • Olive oil spray

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees (Fahrenheit).
  2. Spray a non-stick pan with olive oil spray, and heat over medium-high heat. Cook jalapeno peppers for 3-5 minutes, until softened. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Add the jalapenos and corn kernels to the flour mixture, and toss to coat.
  5. Add the sweetened condensed milk, egg, water, and olive oil to the bowl. Mix until well combined.
  6. Pour the batter into a prepared baking pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown. Cornbread is done when a knife inserted into the bread comes out clean.

Notes

  • Reduce the amount of jalapenos for a more mild cornbread.
