Ingredients
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder (plus 2 teaspoons )
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup skim milk
- 2 large eggs (at room temperature)
- 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 cup freshly grated part skim sharp cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions (white and green parts, plus additional 1-2 tablespoons for garnish (2-3 scallions total))
- 2 jalapeño peppers (seeded and minced )
Steps
-
In a large bowl, stir together the cornmeal, whole wheat pastry flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl or large measuring cup, combine the milk, eggs, apple sauce, oil, and honey.
-
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients, then add the wet ingredients.
-
Stir by hand, just until combined, then let the batter rest for 20 minutes.
-
Stir in the cheese, 1/4 cup green onions, and jalapenos.
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat an 8x8-inch pan with cooking spray. Then, pour the rested batter into the prepared pan, then smooth the top. Sprinkle remaining green onions over the top.
-
Bake until the top and edges are dry and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 24-29 minutes. Let cool, then slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
