Mmmm. Cornbread. That’s all you really need to say about this popular side summer side. But when you add jalapeƱo pepper to kick it up a notch, it goes well past “mmm” to “holy cow!” Yes, that’s the experience of jalapeƱo cornbread, at least for those in my family.

The hot pepper just works so well with the rustic tastes and textures of the bread. Top it with a little warm butter, dip it in your summer-time chili, or soak up some extra barbecue sauce. No matter how you eat it, it’s fantastic.
