Ingredients

  • 1 box cornbread mix
  • ⅓ cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 4 ounces Cabot Sharp Cheddar, grated (about 1 cup)

  • ½ cup canned creamed corn
  • 2 tablespoons (or more) diced jalapeños
  • Pickled jalapeño rings for garnish

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400ºF. Combine cornbread mix with one egg and milk. Add grated Cabot Sharp Cheddar, creamed corn and diced jalapeños. Pour into a greased loaf pan if making jalapeno cheddar cornbread and a greased muffin pan if making jalapeno cheddar cornbread muffins (cornbread will stick unless pan is well-greased or muffin cups are used.) Garnish with pickled jalapeño rings and bake for 15-20 minutes.
