I found a basic Corn Bread recipe, dressed it up and this is what I came up with. Â It is SO very good. Â The whole Kernel corn makes it extra good. Â Hope you enjoy!
Jalapeño Corn Bread
INGREDIENTS:
1 Cup Flour
1 TBL Baking Powder
½ tsp Salt
2 TBL Sugar
½ Cup Corn Meal
2 Eggs
¼ cup vegetable shortening (melted)
¼ cup whipping cream
¾ cup Milk
½ cup chopped onions
3 canned or fresh jalapeno peppers
1 cup frozen corn (thawed)
shortening for greasing the pan
Directions:
Preheat oven to 425F. Generously grease a large cast iron skillet. Place the skillet in the oven while it is preheating to get the grease sizzling hot.
Sift flour, baking powder, salt and sugar into a large bowl. With a fork, blend in the cornmeal. Add remaining ingredients to the bowl. Stir just until all ingredients are moist. DO NOT over mix.
Pour batter into the hot greased skillet.
Bake in oven until top springs back when pressed with finger, about 20 minutes.
Slice, add butter and serve.
