A flavorful and spicy twist on traditional cornbread, perfect for any occasion.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even baking and a consistent texture.
Cut the bread dough into 1-inch cubes.
Use a sharp knife to make clean cuts for uniform pieces.
In a large bowl, combine the bread cubes, corn, diced jalapeños, pimientos, egg, and vinegar. Toss until evenly mixed.
Ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed for consistent flavor.
Spray two loaf pans with non-stick cooking spray and spoon the mixture evenly into the pans.
Press the mixture gently to ensure it fills the pans evenly.
Cover the pans and let the mixture stand for 15 minutes.
Resting allows the flavors to meld and the dough to rise slightly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown.
Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick; it should come out clean.
Cool the loaves in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cooling on a wire rack prevents the bottom from becoming soggy.
Slice and serve warm. Enjoy your Spicy Jalapeño Cornbread Loaf!
Serve with butter or honey for an extra treat.
