jalapeno cornbread

Fiery pepper quickbread

Jalapeno cornbread is cornbread made with diced jalapeno peppers folded into the batter, adding heat and flecks of green to the golden crumb.

A staple of Tex-Mex and Southern cooking, it pairs with chili, barbecue, or beans: I made a skillet of jalapeno cornbread to go with the pulled pork.
