   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1                cup  all-purpose flour -- (5 oz./155 g)
   1                cup  yellow cornmeal -- preferably stone-ground 
(7 oz./220 g)
   2               tsp.  baking powder
      1/2          tsp.  fine sea salt
      1/4           cup  unsalted butter -- (2 oz./60 g)
      3/4           cup  whole milk -- (6 fl. oz./180 ml)
      1/4           cup  maple syrup -- (3 oz./90 g)
   1              large  egg -- beaten
   1                cup  shredded sharp cheddar cheese -- (4 oz./125 g)
   1                cup  fresh or thawed frozen corn kernels -- (6 oz./185 g)

This not-too-sweet cornbread is the ultimate partner to scrambled 
eggs and spicy sausage, but it goes equally well with chili and other 
soups and stews. Gently sweetened with maple syrup and flecked with 
corn kernels, chunks of mild poblano chiles and bits of sharp cheddar 
cheese, then baked in a cast-iron skillet, it's a cut above your 
everyday cornbread.

Prep: 15 minutes
Cook: 45 minutes

Preheat a broiler. Place the chiles on a baking sheet and broil, 
turning occasionally, until the skins are blackened on all sides, 
about 12 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let cool until easy 
to handle. Peel off the blackened skin. Discard the stem, seeds and 
ribs, then chop the chiles.

Preheat an oven to 400F (200C).

In a bowl, sift together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder and salt. 
Make a well in the center of the flour mixture.

Place the butter in a 10" (25-cm) heatproof frying pan, preferably 
cast iron. Place in the oven until the butter is melted, about 3 
minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and pour 2 Tbs. of the melted 
butter into a large bowl, leaving the remaining butter in the pan and 
tilting the pan to coat. Add the milk, maple syrup and egg to the 
butter in the bowl and stir to combine. Pour the milk mixture into 
the well in the flour mixture and stir just until combined. Fold in 
the chopped chile, cheese and corn. Spread the batter in the hot pan.

Bake until the cornbread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted 
into the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a wire 
rack and let cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve 
hot or warm.
