Instructions:

Step 1:

In a large bowl, add two cups of rice, one cup of yellow cornmeal, one teaspoon of salt, one-half teaspoon of baking soda, one tablespoon of chopped jalapeno pepper, and one-half cup of chopped onions. Mix everything with a wooden spoon or spatula.

Step 2:

In a different bowl, beat two eggs. Add one cup of whole milk and one-fourth cup of canola oil. Mix until well combined. Next, add 14.5 oz of cream-style corn and stir until just blended.

Step 3:

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix until well combined.

Step 4:

Grease a 10-inch iron skillet with butter on all sides. After that, sprinkle a couple of pinch of cornmeal. Transfer the mixture to the skillet and spread evenly with a spatula.

Step 5:

Place inside the oven at 350F and bake for 45 to 50 minutes or until golden brown. To check if it’s cooked, use a toothpick and insert it into different parts of your cornbread. If it comes out clean, it’s done baking. Set it aside and let it cool for a few minutes.

Step 6:

Slice and serve. Enjoy!
