Ingredients:
Instructions:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the self-raising flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and chili powder until well combined. Stir in the finely chopped rosemary to evenly distribute it throughout the dry mixture.
In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, egg, and maple syrup. Make sure the butter is slightly cooled before adding it to avoid curdling the egg.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy but all the flour should be moistened.
Pour the batter into your prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick or skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the cornbread from the oven and let it cool in the baking dish for about 5-10 minutes. Slice into squares and serve warm. Enjoy your Chilli and Rosemary Cornbread as a delightful side for soups, stews, or enjoy it on its own!
Tips:
- Use fresh rosemary for a more vibrant flavor.
- If you prefer a milder taste, reduce the amount of chili powder.
- Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before mixing to ensure an even batter.
- Let the cornbread cool slightly before cutting to keep it from crumbling.
- For a sweeter touch, add an extra tablespoon of maple syrup.
