Cooking Directions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly grease or spray an 8-inch baking dish or whatever size pan you plan to use. Note: baking times will vary based on pan size. Instructions are based on the 8-inch baking dish.
- Melt the butter and set aside to cool.
- In a large bowl, mix together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and Jalapeño Pepper Salt. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, mix together slightly-beaten eggs, honey, buttermilk, and melted butter. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and fold together. The batter will still be lumpy but make sure there aren't any dry clumps. Let stand a few minutes to absorb. Give the batter a couple more turns and pour into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake until the top is golden brown and a tester inserted into the middle of the corn bread comes out clean (about 20-25 minutes).
- Remove from the oven and top with a generous sprinkle of Jalapeño Pepper Salt for added crunch and flavor.
- Let cool 10 minutes before cutting and serving.
