Yield Makes 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups plus 1 tablespoon unbleached all purpose flour
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup 1/2-inch cubes mozzarella cheese (about 4 ounces)
1 cup chilled buttermilk
2 large eggs
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
2/3 cup diced seeded plum tomatoes (about 4 ounces)

Steps:

  • Position rack in bottom third of oven and preheat to 400°F. Butter 9x9x2-inch baking pan. Whisk 1 1/2 cups flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda in large bowl to blend well. Combine mozzarella cubes and remaining 1 tablespoon flour in small bowl; toss to coat. Whisk buttermilk, eggs, olive oil and chopped Italian parsley in medium bowl to blend. Add buttermilk mixture to flour mixture and stir just to combine (do not overmix). Sprinkle mozzarella cubes and diced tomatoes over batter; stir gently just to distribute evenly.
  • Transfer batter to prepared pan. Bake corn bread until beginning to brown on top and tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 22 minutes. Transfer pan to rack. Cool bread 15 minutes. Cut into squares or wedges and serve warm.

Delicious! This cornbread is so moist and flavorful, and the tomatoes and mozzarella add a nice touch of tanginess and creaminess. I served it with a side of chili and it was perfect.

Solid cornbread recipe. Nothing too special, but it's a good base recipe that you can dress up with different toppings. I added some crumbled bacon and diced jalapeños, which gave it a nice kick.

Disappointed. Followed the recipe exactly but the cornbread turned out dense and crumbly. The tomatoes and mozzarella were good, but not enough to save the dish.

This recipe is a keeper! I've made it several times already and it's always a hit. The cornbread is moist and flavorful, and the tomatoes and mozzarella add a nice touch of tanginess and creaminess. I like to serve it with a side of chili or soup.

Meh. Not a fan. The cornbread was dry and the tomatoes were bland. I'll stick to my usual cornbread recipe.

This cornbread recipe was an absolute delight! The combination of fresh tomatoes and mozzarella cheese was perfect and paired so well with the fluffy cornbread. I added a bit of chopped basil for an extra pop of flavor. The baking time was spot on, r
