Alliea, posted this one on her 'What to do with a Pound Of Bacon Thread " That's a story in itself ~ and Immediately I knew this one would be a wonderful offering for my guests last night and indeed it was. I made it early in the day so naturally had to snitch a piece ~ Decilious but very custardy almost like a pudding. Thought I didn't bake it enough,
Brought it out early and figued to get it baked some more and ready for serving. Baked it for an additional 15 minutes. Taste test again ~
Oops this is not cornbread, "But " whatever it is, Its outstanding and thank goodness I saved a few on the side~ After the way these things flew no way was I refreshing the plate !~ Now down to the bones of this recipe ~ It is a cross between a bread pudding and a quiche, It's faily heavy in texture, but light to taste and wonderfully dressed up with so many great goodies ~
In a way I am glad that this one had nothing to do with bread, because now I have a new and exciting new Appy~ thanks so much Alliea for sharing the recipe ~ Janie ~ Now to print requested copyies ~ Another good thing is that they were just as good at room temperature.
Cornbreadjalapeno ( posted by peetabear/ and recipe by Loretta Gills)
Ingredients ( Mix all together well )
1 cup cornmeal
1 cup of flour
2-1/2 cups milk
1 onion grated
1/2 cup vegtable oil ( used canola)
3 eggs beaten
2 Tbs sugar
1 small can of cream of corn
1/2 cup chopped jalapenos ( used green chilies 1/2 of a small can)
1-1/2 cups of grated cheese ( used a Mexican blend)
1/4 pound of cooked and crumbled bacon
1/4 cup of chopped canned pimentos ( used fresh red pepper )
1-2 cloves of garlic, minced
Pour mixture into 2 small or 1 large greased rectangular dish and bake at 400 for 35 minutes `
* The bottome started to brown about 25 minutes into the baking time so I reduced the oven temp to 375. On the second baking I baked at the 375 degree for about 15 extra minutes
I cut them, then rebaked them and they did firm up slightly after the second baking, but still retained that quiche like texture ~
