CHEDDAR CORNBREAD



Cheddar Cornbread image

Cheddar cornbread is a twist on a Southern classic. It's a little untraditional given the inclusion of a slight amount of sugar and a rather generous amount of cheese and, if you please, jalapeño.

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup stone-ground yellow cornmeal
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon coarse salt
Pinch of cayenne pepper
1 1/2 cups milk
2 large eggs (lightly beaten)
1 1/2 tablespoons (3/4 oz) unsalted butter (melted)
1 cup grated Cheddar cheese
1/2 cup corn kernels ((fresh, frozen, or left over from a cooked cob))
2 tablespoons chopped pickled jalapeños ((optional))

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cayenne. Blend in the milk, eggs, and butter. Fold in the cheese, corn, and the jalapeños, if using.
  • Scoop into a well-seasoned 10-inch cast-iron skillet or a buttered 8-inch square baking pan and smooth over the top. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, until the top is golden brown and a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean. (Do not overbake it or the cornbread will be dry.)
  • Cut into wedges or squares and serve hot.

CHEDDAR CORNBREAD



Cheddar Cornbread image

The sharpness of the Cheddar plays off the sweetness of the coconut oil, but also adds critical umami to this fluffy, light, and very, very tasty cornbread. I also sometimes add chopped jalapenos, scallions, and cilantro, which make it herby and kind of spicy (in a good way). The tofu and flaxseeds give it extra protein and nutrients.

Time 1h

Yield Makes one 12-inch skillet of cornbread

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup fine cornmeal
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup pureed silken tofu (see Cook's Note)
3 tablespoons flaxseeds, finely ground (or 2 1/2 tablespoons flax meal)
1 1/2 cups whole milk
2 teaspoons distilled white vinegar
6 tablespoons coconut oil, liquefied
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter
3 ounces sharp Cheddar cheese, grated on the medium-hole side of a box grater (about 1 cup)

Steps:

  • Adjust an oven rack to the middle position and preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl.
  • Place the silken tofu in a blender and buzz it until smooth.
  • Whisk together the pureed tofu, ground flaxseeds, and milk in a large bowl. Place a 12-inch oven-safe skillet (preferably cast-iron) or a 2-quart casserole dish in the oven.
  • Whisk the vinegar into the tofu mixture, then add the flour mixture, coconut oil, and 6 tablespoons melted butter. Stir until nearly combined, then add the cheese and stir until incorporated.
  • Place the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter in the skillet in the oven and let it warm up and sizzle for 2 minutes. Then carefully remove the skillet, tilt it to spread the butter around, and pour the cornbread batter into it. Spread it out evenly with a silicone spatula and quickly get the pan back in the oven.
  • Bake until the cornbread is golden brown, resists light pressure, and a cake tester comes out with just a crumb or two attached, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly, then slice into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature.
