Cheesy Spicy Cornbread!

"This is a yummy, easy, savory recipe for cornbread! It's also really good with a can of drained corn, but I have to omit for DH's sake. I like to add a bit of salt because the jiffy mix is a little sweet. I also add 2 tablespoons of flour since I live at high altitude. I've made this different ways, using red onions or green onions, both ways were delish...go with what you like best! Note: If mixture is too dry, just add a splash of milk to moisten. Recipe updated to include milk."

  1. I make its with cornbread from scratch and buttermilk with the juice from the drained rotel. Drained vorn, cheese. My partner loves it and it's a must in our place every week.
     
  2. This recipe is great! I used a can of extra hot rotel and it was definitely on the spicy side, I will definitely tone it down next time. I also used mini muffin cups and they came out nice and crispy. I will certainly make these again. Thanks KPD!

Tweaks

  1. I put cheese on top after it was cooked all the way and put it back in the over for a minute to melt the cheese. The time posted isn't correct it took me an extra 25 minutes to fully cook
