Jalapeño Cheddar Mexican Cornbread

Ingredients

Directions

Start by preheating your oven to 400 degrees. In a medium casserole dish, put your butter in the pan and place it in the oven. Allow your butter to melt and get hot in this time. You want a really buttery flavor to this – trust me .) In a medium mixing bowl, add in your milk, egg, and cornmeal and mix well. Dice your peppers really well and place them in the mixing bowl.

MAJOR TIP – before you move forward with any other steps. Wash your hands immediately after you place the peppers in the bowl. You do not want to rub your eyes or lips!

Add in your cheeses, and mix really well with a whisk. You want to make sure that there are no clumps of cornmeal in your mixture. Once your oven has completely preheated, pour your cornbread mix into your casserole dish. Cook for 30 to 45 minutes, until completely golden brown. Allow to cool completely before serving.

Enjoy with some yummy, warm potato, taco, or any type of soup. Good with chili too!
