Ingredients

Peach Jalapeno Cornbread

  • 1 cup chopped fresh peaches about 2 small Florida peaches
  • 1 large jalapeño diced - approx 1/2 cup. I leave the seeds in for a little added heat, feel free to remove them if desired.
  • 1 ½ Tbsp salted butter divided
  • cups stone-ground yellow cornmeal
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • cups 2% milk
  • 1 squeeze fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°F.

  • Carefully remove skillet from oven. Remember the handle will be HOT.
