Elevate cornbread to an entirely new level – this semi homemade version has fresh corn and a can of green chilis giving it a punch of extra flavor. It can be devoured all on its own with some homemade honey butter or pair with Mexican or BBQ flavored meals.

HOW TO MAKE GREEN CHILI CORNBREAD WITH HONEY BUTTER

Ingredients:

  • Butter
  • Famous Daves Cornbread packet
  • whole milk
  • egg
  • green chilis
  • corn

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees with a cast iron skillet inside. Let this heat up for at least 15 – 20 minutes. It needs to be piping hot.

In a large bowl combine the Famous Daves cornbread packet, milk and egg. Stir until just combined.

Add the green chilis and fresh corn. Fold in gently.

Remove cast iron from the oven. Drop a half a stick of butter in the skillet. Let this sizzle and melt completely.

Pour batter into the melted butter. No need to mix.

Bake at 400 degrees for 17-20 minutes or until golden brown and a knife comes out clean.

For the honey butter, simply stir butter, honey and sugar together until combined.

The famous Daves cornbread mix is just hard to beat. I’ve tried to replicate it with my own cornmeal, and sometimes you just have to use a shortcut. It’s quick, easy and delicious… what more can you ask for?
