For a richer flavor, try using a blend of Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese. If you prefer a sweeter cornbread, add 1-2 tablespoons of sugar to the batter. To add more texture, consider adding a can of drained and rinsed black beans or some chopped bell peppers. For a spicier kick, leave the seeds in one of the jalapeños. Cornbread can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for longer storage.
