Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Generously butter a 3-quart or 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Spread the bread cubes on a large rimmed baking sheet. Toast in the oven, stirring occasionally, until the bread is lightly golden, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees. In a sauté pan over medium heat, melt the 2 tablespoons butter. Add the yellow onion and a pinch of salt and sauté until translucent and just starting to brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the corn, green onions, garlic, paprika, thyme and a big pinch of salt and sauté until the vegetables are warmed through and fragrant, about 5 minutes. In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, cream, eggs, half the cheese, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and some freshly ground black pepper. Scrape the corn mixture into the milk mixture and stir to combine. Add the toasted bread cubes, and toss to combine. Scrape the mixture into the prepared baking dish, distributing the ingredients evenly, and set aside for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally and pressing down on the bread cubes to evenly distribute the liquid. Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top and bake until the pudding is golden brown and set, about 45 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes, then serve hot.

CHEDDAR SWEET CORN SPOON BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to approximately 375°F and have ready a casserole dish, approximately 8x10 inches, lightly buttered.
• In a clean saucepan, melt the butter and lightly sauté the finely diced onions. Add a pinch of cayenne pepper and salt.
• Add the milk and bring to a simmer. Add the cornmeal and work briskly with a wooden spoon to prevent any lumps. Cook the cornmeal for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring gently over low heat. Remove from heat and allow to cool for 15 minutes.
• Next add the cheese, the egg yolks and the corn and stir well so that everything is thoroughly mixed.
• Whisk the egg whites so as they are at a soft peak stage and then incorporate 1/3 at a time to a corn mixture.
• Pour everything into the casserole and bake for approximately 20 to 30 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes prior to serving.

CORN BREAD WITH CHEDDAR, JALAPENO AND GREEN ONIONS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 375 2. If you are using buttermilk, milk or yogurt, ignore this step. If you want to use soured milk (a good substitute for buttermilk), warm the milk gently - one minute in the microwave is sufficient, just enough to take the chill off - and add the vinegar. Let it rest while you prepare the other ingredients. 3. Place the fat in a medium oven-proof skillet or in an 8-inch square baking pan over medium heat (Deb note: would you believe I lack both? I used three of my mini-loaf pans); heat until good and hot, about 2 minutes, then turn off the heat. Meanwhile, combine the dry ingredients in a bowl. Mix the egg into the buttermilk, milk or soured milk. Stir the liquid mixture into the dry ingredients, combining well; if it seems too dry, add another tablespoon or two of milk. Pour the batter into the preheated fat, smooth out the top if necessary, and place in the oven. 4. Bake about 30 minutes, or until the top is lightly brown and the sides have pulled away from the pan; a toothpick inserted into the center will come out clean. Serve hot or warm. Optional additions I used: One cup canned creamed corn, one cup grated extra-sharp cheddar, two thinly sliced scallions, and 1 tablespoon chili powder, but only because the store was out of jalapenos. I usually mince one in.

BEER, BACON, AND CHEDDAR CORN BREAD

JALAPENO-CHEDDAR CORN BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F. Lightly grease a 7 × 4 × 3-inch loaf pan with oil.
• Pour the rice milk and apple cider vinegar into a small bowl, but do not stir; set aside to develop into "buttermilk." In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, corn flour, baking powder, baking soda, xanthan gum, and salt. Add the oil, agave nectar, applesauce, and vanilla to the dry ingredients. Stir the batter until fully combined. Pour in the "buttermilk" and mix gently until the ingredients are fully incorporated and a slightly grainy batter is formed. Using a plastic spatula, fold in the jalapeños and cheese until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake the corn bread on the center rack for 40 minutes, rotating the pan 180 degrees after 20 minutes. The finished corn bread will bounce back slightly when pressed, and a toothpick inserted in the center will come out clean.
• Let the corn bread stand in the pan for 20 minutes, then gently run a knife around the edge of the bread. Cover the top of the pan with a cutting board, and invert the loaf onto the board. Carefully lift the pan away and re-invert the corn bread onto another cutting board. Either cut and serve warm, or wait until it is completely cool before storing. Cover the uncut corn bread with plastic wrap and store at room temperature for up to 3 days.
