Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8"x8" baking pan with butter or cooking spray.

  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, baking powder, and salt until thoroughly mixed.

  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, combine the sour cream (or buttermilk), oil, eggs, and cream corn. Mix well until smooth.

  4. Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing, as this can make the cornbread tough.

👩‍🍳 A secret to achieving a tender cornbread is to let the batter sit for a few minutes before baking. This allows the cornmeal to absorb the moisture, resulting in a softer texture!

  1. Layering: Pour half of the batter into the greased baking pan. Sprinkle the chopped green chili peppers and ½ cup of the grated cheese over this layer. Pour the remaining batter on top, and then finish with the last ½ cup of cheese.

  2. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  3. Cool and Serve: Let the cornbread cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!

🍽️ This cornbread pairs wonderfully with spicy chili, soups, or just as a snack on its own. For an extra kick, drizzle it with your favorite hot sauce!
