It was very easy to make

This cornbread was really good. The Jalapeno was a nice touch too. I'm not a big fan of cilantro, so I removed it and just doubled the amount of jalapeno for some added spice. Try not to rub your eyes after handling it... *ouch*

OLE!

Wow, this is the best cornbread I've EVER made (or tasted). A huge hit, easy to make and the jalapeno was lovely (I did remove the seeds as I don't like the heat). Dill and cilantro - never added that before and it adds so much flavor. I also love that it makes a bit batch. It sure does make a wonderful meal alongside a bowl of chili. THANKS AGAIN.

Blue Cornmeal

Can I use blue cornmeal in the recipe? I am hosting a halloween party and would love to serve the blue cornbread with my pumpkin chili. I've never used blue cornmeal, but I imagine the visual effect would be great for the party!

Substituting Blue Cormeal with Yellow Cormeal

You should be totally fine in this recipe to substitute blue for yellow cornmeal.

Sounds like it will be a fun Halloween at your house!

amount of baking powder

I love this website and have tried many of the recipes with great success.

I was just wondering by any chance if there is a typo with regard to the amount of baking powder? 2 2/3 tbsp (tablespoons, right?) baking powder seems like a huge amount to me - I haven't tried to make this yet but was planning on doing so this evening.

Thanks!

Re: Amount of Baking Powder in Cornbread

The amount of baking powder is correct, but now that I look at it, I see that it is sort of an odd amount. I will make it again very soon and try adjusting the amount to come up with a more even number, just to make it easier on my brain :-) Cheers!
