Jalapeno Cornbread

This light and fluffy Jalapeño Cornbread recipe is made with basic ingredients, but has a kick of jalapeno and cheddar cheesy flavor!

Ingredients :

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Set aside 1 tablespoon of jalapeno for topping the bread.
In a medium bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together egg, buttermilk, and melted butter.
Add the buttermilk mixture to the flour mixture and stir just until moistened. Fold in the cheese and jalapenos. Set aside.
Add 1 tablespoon butter to a 10-inch cast iron skillet and place it in the oven for 3 to 4 minutes or until warmed and the butter is melted.
Remove the skillet from the oven and pour the batter into the pan. Sprinkle with the reserved jalapenos.
Bake 23 to 27 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
