This Cheesy Cornbread Delight recipe takes the classic cornbread to a new level with a touch of cheddar and a hint of spice.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even baking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until evenly mixed.
Use a whisk to aerate the dry ingredients for a fluffier texture.
Add the eggs, milk, and melted butter to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Avoid overmixing to keep the cornbread tender.
Fold in the grated cheddar cheese gently.
Reserve a small amount of cheese to sprinkle on top for a golden crust.
Pour the batter into a greased round cake pan and spread it evenly.
Grease the pan thoroughly to prevent sticking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Check for doneness a few minutes early to avoid overbaking.
Let the cornbread cool slightly before slicing and serving.
Serve warm with a pat of butter or a drizzle of honey for extra flavor.
