Cheddar Jalapeno Cornbread

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray 8×8″ baking pan with cooking spray or heat oil in a cast-iron skillet. Prep your ingredients. Mix just until combined and bake.  It’s pretty straightforward and simple. In a large bowl whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk the egg, buttermilk, vegetable oil, and honey in a separate bowl. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients. Stir until just combined. Do not over mix. Add onion, jalapeños, green chiles, and sharp cheddar cheese; fold into batter until just mixed. Pour into the prepared baking pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in center, comes out clean. Allow to cool for about 5 minutes or room temperature, slice and serve.
