Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 eggs
4 Tbsp butter, melted
8 1/2 oz can cream-style corn (or half of a regular 15 oz can is close enough)
1 c sour cream
1 c yellow cornmeal
3 jalapeño chiles, seeded and minced
1/2 c chopped onion
3 Tbsp chopped jarred pimento
4 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp salt
1 c shredded sharp cheddar cheese (4 oz)

Steps:

  • 1. Put a well-oiled 9-inch cast iron skillet into a cold oven and heat to 400ºF. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the eggs and butter. Work together with fork. Stir in remaining ingredients until well mixed.
  • 2. Carefully remove hot skillet from oven and pour batter into hot skillet. Return the pan to the oven and bake until the cornbread is firm to the touch - about 1 hour or until crust is a deep golden brown. Cut into wedges; serve hot.
