Zesty Cheddar And Green Chili Cornbread - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 cup low-fat buttermilk
1/4 cup canola oil
7 ounces hot green chili peppers (fire roasted)
6 ounces reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

Preparation

Stir together well flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Beat eggs, buttermilk, oil together until well mixed.
Add shredded cheddar and chilies to flour mixture and stir.
Add wet ingredients to dry and stir until just mixed. Do not overmix as this will make tough cornbread.
I use a 9x9x2 in pan and bake for 27-35 minutes at 400\u00b0F, depending on your oven.
As another variation I like to add a half cup or so of roasted corn (drained) and cut back on the amount of chilies and cheese.
