All that changed when my sister-in-law (who lives in San Antonio - beautiful city, by the way) gave us Classic Tex Mex and Texas Cooking for Christmas a couple years ago. I haven't had a chance to dive too far into these regional recipes, but the "Plain Ole Cornbread" recipe has become something of a standby.
I decided to give it a little bit of a cheesy twist. It came out moist and so very cornbread-y.
It's really a very basic recipe, and you could probably add any flavors you like - chili powder, garlic, maybe drizzle with honey or maple syrup. (Incidentally, the basic cornbread - sans cheese - is amazing with homemade sugar plum jam.)
I apologize in advance for most of these pictures. The sun decided to shine directly into my kitchen window when I was making this.
