Herb Cornbread

Preheat the oven to 350F.

Butter a bread pan (I like to use a square brownie pan) with a bit of the melted butter and set aside.

In a big bowl, mix the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and pepper.

In another bowl, mix the eggs, buttermilk and melted butter. Pour into the dry ingredients and mix well. Fold in the chillies and herbs and pour into the buttered pan.

Bake for 45 minutes. It should look golden brown but not too dark. Insert a knife and if it comes out clean, it’s ready!

Tastes great on its own with a spread of butter or as an accompaniment to soup, beans or even a salad!
