Jalapeno Cheddar Skillet Cornbread is perfect with a big bowl of hot soup or chili with a thick wedge of homemade cornbread.
And don't forget the butter. It must have a fat pat of butter melting over the top and dripping over the edges. This slightly sweet and spicy cornbread is perfect served with a big bowl of soup or stew.
Sweet Cornbread
Now I like my cornbread on the sweet side. So I always add a little sugar to my homemade cornbread recipes.
That sweetener would be white sugar.
There aren't many savory recipes that call for sugar and when they do it is a small amount.
It tastes delicious! Just a hint of sugar to homemade cornbread makes all the difference.
How to make Jalapeno Cheddar Skillet Cornbread
Preheat the oven to 425 F. degrees.
Gather your ingredients.
Put the butter in a cast iron skillet and put the cast iron skillet in the oven to heat up and to melt the butter.
Measure out the wet and dry ingredients in separate bowls.
Whisk the dry ingredients together in a small bowl.
In a large bowl whisk the buttermilk and eggs together.
Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven, pour the melted butter into the bowl of buttermilk mixture and whisk until combined.
Pour the flour mixture into the bowl of buttermilk and whisk until combined.
Fold the cheddar cheese and pickled jalapeno peppers into the batter.
Pour the cornbread batter into the hot skillet.
