Made this for my husband and two of his friends... They LOVED it, ate the whole skillet in one sitting! We're currently in the UK and I couldn't find buttermilk so I used 1tbsp of vinegar in a 1 cup measure, filled the rest of the cup with milk, let sit for a couple minutes before using. Also couldn't find creamed corn, so I used some frozen corn instead. Finally found cornmeal here under the label "maize meal" in a health food store... A finer grain than polenta, which is like yellow corn meal and also found in health food stores here. Well worth the trouble! Simple to make, everyone loved it! Very moist.

I loved this cornbread! It smelled so delicious cooking and was very most and yummy. The only thing I changed was that I used coconut oil instead of corn oil and dehydrated onions instead of fresh. I will be making this again.

My family really enjoyed this. It was good, but I felt it was just missing something, and I can't put my finger on what it is. I would definitely make this again.

Great recipe. My mods: upped to 3/4 flour to give a little more body. Added small can of green chilis and two chopped sarrento peppers. Definitely seed the jalapenos to get flavor without too much heat. Added a little garlic. I used both a can of (no salt added) kernal corn and a can of (no salt added) cream-style. Need to bake about 45-50 minutes to get nice crust on top. Also I recommend using the coarsest cornmeal you can get; I used polenta meal.

This was really good!! I only gave it 4 stars cuz I subbed part of the flour for mesquite flour. This gave it a nice smokey taste and brown color. I forgot to add the peppers & the cheese. It was T G DAY and had way too much stuff going on in the kitchen. To be honest with you, I think I will heat it up in the morning and put pancake syrup on it!! Happy Thanksgiving! ! Thanks Lynn, loved this!!

A very good cornbread but it was lacking something. I think sugar. I used a little more cheese than recommended and I left the seeds in the jalapenos. I cooked it a good ten minutes longer than the recipe calls for and it still came out surprisingly moist, but not under-cooked so I guess that's just the way it's supposed to be.

This is good cornbread. It is dense and flavorful with plenty of moistness. I got numerous compliments on it and there were no left overs. It is not sweet so if you like a sweet cornbread just add some sugar as others have recommended. I used a 4 oz. can of roasted jalapenos that I diced up instead of 2 fresh ones since I didn't have any fresh jalapenos in stock. It was not hot. It was flavorful and moist but really no heat. I would have liked a little more heat for my tastes. I don't know if the fresh jalapenos make it very hot but if you want a tasty mild version I can vouch for the Ortega roasted jalapenos in a 4 oz. can.

I'd say 1 cup of onion is sufficient for this recipe. I speak from personal experience. That said, I have another cornbread recipe that I rather than this one. Thanks though!
