Jalapeno Corn Bread
A delicious option for fall weather is homemade cornbread. The Four Kids and a Chicken blog prefer to use the TLAR method of measuring. If you are unfamiliar, it means “That looks about right.” It’s a VFR navigating method for you non-pilots out there. In other words, go ahead and have some creative license with our recipe.
We had a lot of fresh jalapeño peppers from the garden and wanted to make our batch of cornbread with a little kick so we diced them up and threw them in. After it was all baked up, we took some of our honey we collected from our hives and enjoyed piece hot from the oven.
This jalapeno recipe makes a great side bread for a hearty stew or chili. If you are looking for something to go with it, check out our Cheese Curd Chili recipe here. You might even notice that the piece of cornbread we photographed for this recipe is also in the pictures of that post. It’s because they are a perfect match.
