This jalapeno cheese cornbread delivers big time. It's cheesy, it's 
spicy, it has fresh corn, and it's so easy to make! No beating is 
required, it comes together in 15 minutes and bakes to a golden, 
wonderfully textured quick bread.

Prep: 20 min
Cook: 40 min
Total: 1 hr

Preheat oven to 400F /200C

Butter round or square 9" springform pan.

In a skillet over medium heat melt butter.

Add onion and red pepper and cook for a few minutes until a little browned.

Add corn and jalapenos and cook for 1 more minute. Remove from heat 
and reserve.

In a large bowl mix cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder and soda, 
salt and pepper.

Add cold butter and rub with your palms until mixture resembles coarse sand.

In a small bowl mix buttermilk and eggs. Add all at once to the dry 
mixture and mix just to combine. Add cheese and sauteed vegetables 
and mix well.

Pour into prepared pan and bake 30 to 40 minutes, until golden and 
tester comes out clean.

Let cool on wire rack.

Notes: Half recipe: you can make a smaller bread by halving this 
recipe, using 2 small eggs and an 8" pan.
Corn: I use frozen corn because it's available year-round, but fresh 
corn can be used and even better if it's grilled or roasted.
Cheese: my favorites are white cheddar and fontina. Look for a 
semi-hard cheese that is sharp in flavor.
Jalapenos: I like fresh peppers, but canned work just as well. I even 
used jalapenos in adobo once (a very small amount as they are very 
spicy) and the cornbread was amazing.

Review: I made this tonight to go along with some minestrone soup. It 
was really delicious and quite substantial with the addition of all 
those veggies. I would absolutely make this again. Thanks!
