Tips

  • Use room temperature ingredients for a smoother batter.

  • Cheddar & Jalapeño: Add 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese for a rich, cheesy twist.
  • Honey Butter Cornbread: Mix in 2 tablespoons of honey for a slightly sweeter, caramelized crust.
  • Smoky Bacon Cornbread: Fold in 1/2 cup cooked, crumbled bacon for a savory bite.
  • Green Onion & Pepper Jack: Add 1/2 cup grated pepper jack cheese and 1/4 cup chopped green onions.
  • Southwestern Cornbread: Mix in 1/2 teaspoon cumin and 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika for a bold flavor.

Best pairings

  • Grilled steak or smoked ribs for a hearty meal.
