Super Moist Cornbread spiced up with pickled jalapeno peppers. Some sliced fresh jalapenos on top make it look pretty and give a hint of what’s inside.

Sour cream and a can of creamed corn keep this cornbread really moist, even a day or two after baking.

Serve Super Moist Jalapeno Cornbread with some Five Alarm Chilifor a super spicy meal.

I like to cook cornbread in a Cast-Iron Skillet that’s been heated in the oven before the batter is added. Cast iron helps get the exterior golden brown and a little crispy.

You could add some cheese and/or bacon to this cornbread to make it even more delicious.

Cornbread is so easy to make and is the perfect accompaniment to any southern meal.
