When it comes to cornbread all recipes are not created equal. The best cornbread must be moist, slightly sweet and it must be somewhat firm. It cannot crumble into pieces when you pick it up to eat it. This recipe is slightly different than most recipes because I used sauteed jalapeno peppers to add heat and roasted corn to add a slightly smokey flavor. I pairs well with the turkey chili. See the recipe below.
Enjoy! Bon Appetit, Cecelia
