Green Onion Jalapeno Cornbread

Green Onion Jalapeno Cornbread
(Bon Appetit and Epicurious)


I doubled the recipe.  I only had three stalks of green onion so I used what I had on hand.  I did not measure the jalapeno chile with seeds...Trader Joe's only sold them by the box.  I used three, as part of the doubled recipe.  I also did not reference the directions at the time...so... I melted the butter in a pyrex bowl in the microwave, whisked in then the buttermilk and eggs (opposite order).  




3/4 cup all purpose flour
3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup thinly sliced green onions
2 teaspoons minced jalapeño chile with seeds
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
2 large eggs
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted, cooled

Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 13x9x2-inch metal baking pan. Whisk flour, cornmeal, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in large bowl to blend. Stir in green onions and jalapeño. Whisk buttermilk and eggs in medium bowl to blend, then whisk in melted butter. Add buttermilk mixture to dry ingredients and stir just until blended (do not overmix). Transfer batter to prepared pan (batter will come only about 3/4 inch up sides of pan).



Bake cornbread until lightly browned on top and tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Transfer pan to rack and cool cornbread completely in pan. (Cornbread can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover tightly with foil and store at room temperature.)

Results: Mediocre...I'm not sure I would make the recipe again...we'll see if it's any better grilled with queso...
