How to Make Jalapeño Cornbread | Cornbread Recipe

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

In another bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, and eggs until well combined.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

Fold in the diced jalapeños and shredded cheddar cheese, if using.

Grease a 9x9 inch baking dish or a cast-iron skillet.

Pour the batter into the prepared dish and spread it evenly.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.

Serve warm as a side dish or snack.
