Cheddar Jalapeno Cornbread Muffins . It takes longer to type the name than to eat one. Promise.
I grew up with cornbread or biscuits on the table for supper just about every single night. That is probably where my addiction to bread originated, if the truth be known. I always loved to watch Mama as she flipped her skillet over a plate, leaving a perfect, crispy cake of cornbread that she then slice into wedges.
Sometimes, she’d add items to her cornbread, but usually, she made the classic, delicious cornbread recipe that is just hard to beat.
The other night, after a day full of coughing and just feeling cruddy from allergies, I was craving soup like nobody’s business. Thick, rich, creamy soup that would make everything feel better, I felt sure. But, to go with it, I wanted these spicy, warm cornbread muffins and absolutely wouldn’t settle for anything less.
And boy did they do the trick!
Here’s my recipe for Cheddar Jalapeno Cornbread Muffins. You can enjoy them even when you don’t feel cruddy!
Ingredients
- ▢ 1 cup ( 156 g ) cornmeal
- ▢ 1 1/2 cups ( 170 g ) self-rising flour
- ▢ 1 cup ( 113 g ) cheddar cheese , grated
- ▢ 1 medium ( 14 g ) jalapeno pepper , deseeded and diced finely
- ▢ 1 cup ( 245 g ) buttermilk
- ▢ 3 tablespoons ( 63 g ) honey
- ▢ 1/2 cup ( 113 g ) butter , melted
- ▢ 2 large ( 100 g ) eggs
Instructions
- Prep. Preheat oven to 425º F. Line muffin pan with paper liners, spray with baking spray or lightly grease with vegetable oil. Set aside.
- Whisk together wet ingredients. Add the buttermilk, honey, butter and eggs to a 2-cup measuring cup or another mixing bowl. Whisk together until the egg is well combined.
- Combine and Bake. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Spoon the cornbread muffin mixture evenly into the prepared muffin pan, until each liner is filled 3/4. Bake until the cornbread muffins have risen and the center springs to the touch, about 15 – 20.
- Serve. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for a few moments and then run a knife around the edge of the muffin to release them from the pan, if needed. Serve warm.
