Spicy Sweet Jalapeño Cornbread
Ingredients
  • 2/3 cup margarine, softened
  • 2/3 cup white sugar
  • 2 cups cornmeal
  • 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 4 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 2/3 cups milk
  • 1 cup chopped fresh jalapeno peppers, or to taste
Instructions
1
Collect all necessary components and prepare your oven to a temperature of 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
2
In a separate container, apply a thin layer of non-stick spray to a rectangular baking pan measuring 9 inches by 13 inches.
3
In a large mixing vessel, blend together softened butter and granulated sugar until they form a uniform consistency.
4
In another container, combine cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
5
In a third container, gently combine eggs and milk until they form a smooth mixture.
6
Alternate pouring 1/3 of the milk mixture with 1/3 of the flour mixture into the butter mixture, whisking until just combined. Repeat this process with the remaining flour and milk mixtures until the batter reaches a thick, pourable consistency. Stir in diced jalapeño peppers at this stage.
7
Evenly distribute the batter mixture into the prepared baking pan.
8
Place the prepared baking pan in the preheated oven and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, with an estimated cooking time of 22 to 26 minutes.
9
Allow the baked goods to cool within the pan for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
