  2. 2 eggs
  3. 1/3 cup buttermilk
  4. 1/3 cup sour cream
  5. 1/2 cup melted butter
  6. 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  7. 1 tablespoon honey
  8. 2 jalapenos (one roughly chopped the other sliced)
  9. 1 tablespoon finely chopped chives
  10. 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Instructions

  2. Grease a 9 inch baking pan or cast-iron skillet with butter or oil.

  4. Add the Jiffy mix, chopped jalapenos, chives, and cheddar cheese, and stir until well mixed.

Notes

  • Use gloves to cut the jalapenos, preventing possible burning and the dreaded jalapeno hands
  • Melt your butter by zapping it in the microwave for 30 seconds. But let it cool before adding it to the eggs. 
  • Baking at a high temp created the beautiful brown and crispy crust.
  • Grease your pan with butter or oil so that it comes out nice and easy. 
  • Use any 9-inch baking dish, but cornbread shines in a cast-iron skillet. 
  • It's ready with the top has browned, and a knife comes out clean.
