BEER CHEESE CORNBREAD



Beer Cheese Cornbread image

Beer cheese soup is a rich, creamy comfort food favorite of my family in the Midwest. I love when the crispy croutons on top soak up a little flavor from the soup -- and that's what sparked the inspiration for this twist on cornbread! It's slightly sweet like a Northern-style cornbread, balanced with a hint of hops from the IPA and sharpness from the Cheddar.

Time 50m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup fine grind cornmeal
1/3 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup cooked corn, roughly chopped (see Cook's Note)
1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar
Kosher salt
1 cup IPA beer
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Place a 10-inch cast-iron skillet (see Cook's Note) on the center rack of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
  • Melt 6 tablespoons of the butter and let cool in a medium heatproof bowl.
  • Whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, corn, 3/4 cup of the Cheddar and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in another medium bowl. Make a well in the center.
  • Add the beer, eggs and vegetable oil to the cooled butter and whisk together. Pour into the well in the dry ingredients. Stir together gently until just combined.
  • Once the oven has preheated, carefully remove the cast-iron skillet and add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, swirling until completely melted. Pour in the cornbread batter and smooth the top. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup Cheddar.
  • Bake until the cornbread is golden brown and springs back to the touch, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven, let cool for 10 minutes and serve.
