Cornbread Ingredients:

1 cup yellow cornmeal

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 cup buttermilk

2 large eggs

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

2 medium jalapeños, seeded and finely chopped

Lime Honey Glaze Ingredients:

1/2 cup honey

Zest of 1 lime

3 tablespoons lime juice

1 tablespoon melted butter

Pinch of salt

Additional Toppings:

Freshly chopped cilantro


Directions:

Prepare the Cornbread:

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 9-inch square baking pan or a cast-iron skillet.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the yellow cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, and melted butter until well combined.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

Fold in the finely chopped jalapeños and grated cheddar cheese (if using).

Bake the Cornbread:

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan or skillet, spreading it out evenly.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly in the pan.

Prepare the Lime Honey Glaze:

In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, lime zest, lime juice, melted butter, and a pinch of salt until smooth and well combined.


Serve:

Drizzle the lime honey glaze over the warm cornbread.

Garnish with sliced jalapeños and freshly chopped cilantro.

Cut into squares and serve your Flavorful Spicy Jalapeño Cornbread with a Sweet Lime Honey Glaze.


Enjoy!
