JALAPENO ZUCCHINI CORNBREAD



Jalapeno Zucchini Cornbread image

This is a versatile recipe. With its totally green color (from the zucchini), you'll want to remember it on St. Patrick's Day. With its hint of sweetness, (from the honey), you'll want to serve it at breakfast. With its moistness (from the buttermilk and of course the zucchini) you'll enjoy slice after slice. And with its nip of heat (from the jalapenos) you'll want to make this over and over. The recipe comes from our local foodie, Jan D'Atri, who says the 2 jalapenos in the recipe are exactly the right amount. Nevertheless, you'll want to use your judgment!

Tips:

- When selecting zucchini, choose firm and smaller ones as they have fewer seeds and a milder flavor. - Use fresh or frozen corn kernels for the best texture and flavor. Thaw frozen corn before using. - Do not overmix the batter, as this can result in a tough and dense cornbread. - For a crispy crust, preheat your oven and baking dish before pouring in the batter. - If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using. - Add-ins like cheese, bacon, or chopped nuts can enhance the flavor and texture of your cornbread. - If you like spicy food, add a diced jalapeño pepper to the batter for a kick. - For a moist and flavorful cornbread, use a combination of all-purpose flour and cornmeal. - To check if the cornbread is done, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the cornbread is ready.
