Questions & Replies

  1. Wonder can I make cornbread croutons with this fabulous cornbread? has anyone tried that yet? Make the cornbread a day in advance, cut the bread into cubes, mix with 8 tbsp butter, 4 tbsp of olive oi1, 2 tsp salt, 1 tsp freshly ground pepper. Bake the cubes on a parchment paper lined sheet pan for 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown. Would doing this disturb the integrity of this cornbread? Advice is welcomed.

  1. Made this for the first time tonight with some corn chowder and baked in my cast iron skillet (a first for me). I omitted the chilies and only added 1/2 cup sugar and it was moist and delicious. I neither tasted the cheese or the creamed corn, but the family devoured this cornbread! I made the maple butter and it was delicious too!
     
  2. Wonderful! I followed the recipe exactly but only have a 10” skillet, so cut the baking time down to 28 minutes. It was perfect!
     
  3. Delicious! I didn’t have chilis but really wanted to make some cornbread and this recipe did not disappoint. I also didn’t have a cast iron skillet so I baked it in an 8” square glass baking dish and it came out perfectly after baking for 35 minutes, as directed. I’ll definitely make this again and again - and next time use the chilis. Thank you!
     
  4. This is a delicious recipe that really makes you feel that you are eating at Redstone. Crunchy exterior, tender crumb and deliciously buttery through and through. Yummy-yummy! Suggestion: Use the entire 4 oz. can of diced green chilies...it adds to the great flavor and makes the crumb perfectly and deliciously moist.
     
  5. I made this as one our specialties for this year's 4th of July cookout. It was a hit! I poured the batter into my brownie pan as seen in the picture. I slightly overcooked them, but next time I will not get side tracked. I will also use the entire 4oz can of green chiles and all the corn. I used yellow cornmeal, but will use white next time! I think that making individual muffins causes the recipe to lose just a little moisture.

Tweaks

  1. My family has enjoyed this cornbread many times at Redstone so I made a tweak that fits the original flavor. Instead of serving the cornbread with the maple butter, I spread maple butter over the cornbread fresh out of the oven so it melts into the finished product. I use approx 1/3 cup of maple butter for the entire pan. It is so delicious.
