How to Make Sweet And Spicy Mexican Cornbread
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Sauté 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion and 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper in 2 tablespoons of butter until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups cornmeal, 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more, to taste), and 1/2 teaspoon cumin.
- Add 1 cup buttermilk, 1 large egg, and 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter to the dry ingredients. Whisk until just combined; do not overmix.
- Stir in the cooled sautéed onion and pepper mixture.
- Pour batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
