Cornbread - Green Chili Cheddar

A little about categorizing bread. Our system is not scientific by a long shot. We've placed them into table, flat, dessert, and fried. Table bread may include loaves of sandwich-type bread or something designed to serve as a loaf or dinner bun at the table. Flat is generally un-yeasted bread that is flat (duh!). Fried can be pan-fried or deep-fried. Dessert is for delectables such as banana bread. The words dressing and stuffing are interchangeable, depending where you live. Many will contain bread, others may not. This is dizzying.

2 Tbsp butter
2 cups yellow self rising cornmeal
½ cup self rising flour
2 Tbsp sugar
1 tsp garlic powder
1½ cup buttermilk
1 (8) oz cream corn
1 large egg, beaten
1 (4 oz) can green chiles, drained
1½ cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
6 green onion, chopped

Preheat the oven to 425°F. Place a 10-inch cast iron skillet or similar in the oven. Add 2 Tbsp butter to melt while the oven preheats. In a medium size mixing bowl, sift together the cornmeal, flour, sugar and garlic powder. In a separate bowl, whisk together buttermilk, cream corn and egg. Add the wet to the dry ingredients mixing just until fully moistened. Stir in the green chiles, 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese and chopped green onion. Mix well. Remove the skillet from the oven and swirl the melted butter to coat the bottom and sides. Pour the batter into the pan and top with the remaining shredded cheddar cheese. Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden and a toothpick inserted into the center show moist crumbs. Serve warm.
