A boxed cornbread mix gets a fiery upgrade with diced jalapeños and melted butter folded right into the batter. The result is a moist, golden cornbread with a tender crumb and bursts of heat in every bite, ideal alongside chili or barbecue.

Ingredients

  • 15 ounces cornbread mix (such as Jiffy)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 jalapeños, seeded and diced, divided

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F and grease an 8x8-inch baking pan.

  2. In a large bowl, combine the cornbread mix, melted butter, and two-thirds of the diced jalapeños. Stir just until no dry streaks remain.

  3. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Scatter the remaining diced jalapeños over the top.

  4. Bake until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes.

  5. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before slicing into squares and serving.
