Mexican Cornbread

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or cast-iron skillet.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients:
    • In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, and cumin (if using).
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients:
    • In another bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, and eggs until well combined.
  4. Combine Mixtures:
    • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Add Extras:
    • Fold in the corn kernels, cheese, jalapeños, and green onions until evenly distributed.
  6. Bake:
    • Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish or skillet. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Serve:
    • Let it cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm with butter or your favorite chili.

Enjoy your flavorful Mexican Cornbread! It’s perfect for pairing with soups, stews, or just as a tasty snack.
