Jalapeño Cornbread with Lime Honey Glaze Recipe
Ingredients:
For the Jalapeño Cornbread:
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1 cup yellow cornmeal
– 1/4 cup granulated sugar
– 1 tbsp baking powder
– 1/2 tsp salt
– 1 cup buttermilk
– 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
– 2 large eggs
– 1 cup fresh or canned corn kernels
– 2-3 jalapeño peppers, seeded and finely chopped
– 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
For the Lime Honey Glaze:
– 1/4 cup honey
– Zest and juice of 1 lime
Directions:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch square baking dish or cast iron skillet with butter or cooking spray.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk, melted unsalted butter, and eggs. Whisk until well combined.
4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
5. Add Corn, Jalapeños, and Cheese: Gently fold in the corn kernels, chopped jalapeño peppers, and shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed.
6. Bake the Cornbread: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish or skillet, spreading it into an even layer. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Prepare the Lime Honey Glaze: While the cornbread is baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together the honey, lime zest, and lime juice in a small bowl until smooth.
8. Glaze the Cornbread: Remove the cornbread from the oven and let it cool slightly in the pan for about 5 minutes. Drizzle the lime honey glaze over the warm cornbread, allowing it to soak in.
9. Serve and Enjoy: Slice the cornbread into squares and serve warm. Enjoy this flavorful jalapeño cornbread with a sweet and tangy lime honey glaze.
