Directions

CORNBREAD

  • Mix the yellow cornmeal, brown sugar, salt, baking powder, yellow cake mix, stone-ground cornmeal and cayenne pepper in bowl.
  • Mix the Sue Bee® honey, eggs, oil, buttermilk and milk in a large bowl.
  • All at once, add the dry mix to the wet. Mix gently; there should be no lumps, but don't over mix.
  • Fold in the mayonnaise.
  • Let rest covered in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or up to overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 400 F
  • Spoon cold batter into greased muffin tins (9), a cast-iron skillet (9 or 10-inch), or a 9×13-inch pan.
  • Bake 25-30 minutes until knife inserted in center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.

GLAZE

  • Heat butter in a small saucepan until melted. Stir in the peppers. Bring to a simmer. Add the Sue Bee® honey and cayenne. Bring to a simmer and cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Peppers should be soft but retain their brilliant color.
