Cornbread is a staple in any Southern household, and this serrano pepper and cheddar cornbread is a fluffy and crumbly addition to any hearty meal.
How To Make Serrano Cheddar Cornbread
- Chop your bell pepper, serrano peppers, and onion. If you prefer less spice, clean the seeds out of your peppers.
- In a large bowl mix together 2 cups of self rising yellow cornmeal, 1 cup all purpose flour, 1/3 cup avocado or olive oil, 16 oz of creamed corn, 1 chopped bell pepper, 2 chopped serrano peppers, 2 eggs, 1 cup of milk, 1 chopped onion, and 3/4 cup of sharp cheddar cheese.
We prefer Tillamook white sharp cheddar or Cabot Seriously Sharp Cheddar cheese for this cornbread. You can also use vegan cheese to make this recipe dairy free to accommodate dairy allergies.
3. Pour your cornbread batter into a greased square cake pan.
4. Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Entrees To Serve With Cornbread
Cornbread goes well with everything, but makes an especially excellent addition to soups, stews, and the traditional New Years Day black eyed peas and collard greens.
