Patti's Cheesy Jalapeno Cornbread
Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups yellow cornmeal
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 (14 ounce) can cream-style corn
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup chopped jalapeno peppers, or to taste
  • 3 cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to a high temperature of 400 degrees Fahrenheit (or 200 degrees Celsius, if your thermometer is in Celsius).
2
Next, take a large cast-iron skillet and give it a generous coating of cooking spray to prevent food from sticking.
3
Now, combine cornmeal, baking powder, and salt in a bowl and whisk them together until well mixed.
4
In a separate bowl, use an electric mixer to blend sour cream and eggs until they are fully incorporated into the cornmeal mixture.
5
Add in cream-style corn, diced onion, vegetable oil, and chopped jalapeno peppers to the mixture and stir until everything is well combined.
6
Pour half of the batter into a greased cast-iron skillet and top it with 1 cup of shredded Cheddar cheese.
7
Pour the remaining batter into the skillet, followed by an additional 2 cups of shredded Cheddar cheese on top.
8
Finally, place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake until it is set and the cheese topping is melted and golden brown, taking approximately 45 minutes.
