MEXICAN CORNBREAD

Steps:

• In small bowl, mix cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add to cheese mixture; stir just until dry ingredients are moistened. Pour into casserole.
• Bake 40 to 50 minutes or until cornbread is deep golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes; remove from casserole. Serve warm.

MEXICAN CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
• Lightly grease a 12-inch cast iron skillet (a 9x13-inch baking dish works too, but you won't get the same crust).
• In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar together.
• Add eggs one at a time, beating after each addition.
• Mix in corn, chilies and cheese.
• In a separate bowl, mix flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt.
• Add flour mixture to cheese mixture, taking care not to overmix (overmixing makes for tougher cornbread).
• The batter doesn't have to be totally smooth.
• Pour batter into greased pan, and bake in preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
• Serve warm for best crust.

MEXICAN CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Caramelize the onion in a pan with 2 teaspoons of oil. While it is cooking:.
• Preheat oven to 350°.
• Generously spray a 9"X13" pan with cooking spray, or grease with oil or butter.
• Pour the diced tomatoes and pimentos into a sieve to drain.
• In a bowl combine 2 boxes of cornbread mix, 2 eggs, and 2/3 cup of milk. I use fat-free half-n-half instead of milk.
• Pour half of the batter into the greased pan.
• Over the layer of batter, add the cream style corn. It won't make a perfect layer from edge to edge. Just do the best you can to make some semblance of a layer. I try to get a little more closer to the outer edges of the pan than in the center. This helps it cook more evenly.
• Over the corn layer, add the drained diced tomatoes and pimentos. Again just do the best you can. It doesn't have to be perfect.
• Over the tomatoes and pimentos, add the caramelized onions.
• Last, dollop on the remaining half of the batter, in some semblance of a top layer.
• Place on center rack of oven, or lower.
• Bake 40 minutes. Check to see if done in center--it will be very moist but shouldn't be doughy.
• If not done at 40 minutes, bake a little longer, under foil if you are afraid the top will over brown. Let stand 15 minutes before serving.
