Spicy Cajun Cornbread + Bayou Boogie

Here's another family favorite that is really easy to make. This was my dear mother's recipe and it's still the best cornbread that I've ever eaten. The sweetness of the corn and the heat of the jalapenos, blend together like bread and butter. The buttermilk and cheese add a special touch. It is a perfect addition to any meal and is a common staple on the Cajun dinner table.

Spicy Cajun Cornbread

2 large eggs
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup vegetable oil
1 3/4 cups yellow cornmeal
1 tbs. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper, optional
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup seeded and sliced jalapeno pepper
1 can creamed style corn

In a large bowl, beat the buttermilk, eggs and oil. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Mix well and pour into a greased cast iron skillet and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
