Ingredients

2 small Serrano chilies (or 2 ounces canned green roasted chilies)

1 1/2 cups unbleached white flour

1/2 cup yellow cornmeal

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

Pinch cayenne

2/3 cup low-fat milk or soy milk

2 large eggs

1/2 cup canola or grape seed oil or softened butter

3 tablespoons pure maple syrup or sugar

1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

HONEY BUTTER TOPPING

(Optional)

3 tablespoons honey

3 tablespoons soft butter

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350° F.

Put the chilies on a baking pan on the top rack under the broiler until they blister and turn black. Turn them over and repeat. Remove them from the broiler and drop them into a brown bag to cool. The skin will become loose and flaky as they cool.

Mix together all the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Whisk together the milk, eggs, oil or butter, maple syrup or sugar, and the cilantro in a separate bowl.

Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients with a wooden spoon until thoroughly mixed.

Take the chilies out of the bag and slice them in half, directly down the middle. Open them up, and remove the eeds and discard. Peel the skin off and discard. Cut the chilies into small pieces and stir them into the batter until they are completely mixed in.

Smear a little butter or oil on the bottoms and sides of a 9-inch square baking pan or 12 muffin molds and pour the batter in. Bake 20 minutes if using a muffin pan, or 25 minutes if you're using a baking pan. Remove from the oven and let cool.

Make the Honey Butter: Simply blend the softened honey and butter together in a bowl with a fork, whipping lightly to create a creamy spread. Scoop the spread into a ramekin and serve along with the cornbread.

There is nothing here not to like! I hope to try next weekend.. We have had so much company! I agree with you and will try the fresh peppers... Also thought about trying to add cheese to half to see how it taste.. Maybe a pepper jack!
