Description

A delicious and cheesy treat made from jalapeño peppers stuffed with cornbread batter and cheddar cheese.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 Jalapeño Peppers
  • 1 box (15 oz) Cornbread Mix
  • 1 ½ cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese
  • 1 cup Canned Corn

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  2. Slice each jalapeño pepper lengthwise down the center and carefully remove the seeds and veins. Set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, prepare the cornbread mix according to the box instructions. Once the mix is prepared, stir in the canned corn and 1 ½ cups of shredded cheddar cheese.
  4. Carefully fill each jalapeño pepper half with the cornbread batter, making sure not to overfill them.
  5. Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese over the top of the filled jalapeños.
  6. Place the filled jalapeños on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cornbread is firm and cooked through. The tops should be puffed and cheesy.
  7. Let the jalapeño cornbread poppers cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Adjust the number of jalapeños based on your heat preference.
  • These can be made ahead and frozen before baking for a quick appetizer.
