Cornbread

What goes with super bowl chili?  Cornbread, of course.  I added some diced jalapeno and frozen corn to mine to give it some color and texture. Leave it out if you like!  

I doubled mine to put in a 9x13 pan, but the recipe below is for an 8x8 or 9x9 square pan.


Cornbread

1 c. yellow cornmeal

1 c. flour

2/3 c. sugar

3 1/2 t. baking powder

1 t. salt

1/3 c. melted butter

1 egg

1 c. milk

2-3 diced jalapenos, seeds and ribs removed to your heat preference

1/2 c. frozen corn 


Whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.   

Make a well and add the melted butter, egg, and milk.  Stir just until the mix comes together and there are a only a few lumps remaining.  Stir in the jalapeno and corn.

Pour the better in a greased square pan or greased 9 inch cast iron skillet.  Bake at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes until the top is golden brown and a toothpick comes clean.  (If doubling, this will take about 30-35 minutes in a 9x13 pan.)
