How to Make Bandera Cornbread Clone

1. Preheat oven and cast iron skillet(s) to 300°F (150°C) for at least 15 minutes.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, salt, and baking powder. Set aside.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, sugar, drained creamed corn, and chopped jalapeños. Mix well.
4. Add the eggs one at a time to the wet ingredients, mixing until fully incorporated after each addition.
5. Stir in the shredded cheese.
6. Gently fold in the dry ingredients (flour mixture) until just combined. A few lumps are okay.
7. Carefully remove the hot skillet(s) from the oven. Lightly coat the top and sides with canola or vegetable oil.
8. Pour the cornbread batter evenly into the prepared skillet(s).
9. Bake for 30-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer or toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
10. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
