We didn't manage light and fluffy (probably let the batter sit too long while preheating the pan), but we did get a hearty, tasty "Tex-Mex" cornbread treat featuring the spicy, smoky chipotle peppers. Too spicy for Lavender Lynn but delightful to the DH, this will be best enjoyed with a glass of milk or a cold beer handy. Cornbread baked in a cast-iron skillet has a certain style to it, and we might take it to the table in the pan.Reply
