INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup buttermilk (or use buttermilk powder with water as directed to make 1 cup)
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 small can (approximately 8 ounces) cream-style corn
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 2 tablespoons chopped bell pepper (red and green both)
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons finely chopped jalapeno pepper, optional
  • 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

PREPARATION:

In a large mixing bowl, combine cornmeal, flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and the baking soda. Stir to blend. In another bowl, combine the beaten eggs, buttermilk with oil, corn, onion, chopped pepper(s), and shredded cheese. Blend into the dry ingredients until moistened. Pour into a greased 9-inch square baking pan*.
Bake at 350° for 30 to 35 minutes, or until cornbread is browned.
*For a crispier crust, heat the greased pan before adding batter.
