Jalapeno Green Onion Ale Corn Bread

Ingredients

• 1 cup cornmeal
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup buttermilk
• 1/2 cup beer (brown ale- or pilsner-style)
• 1/2 cup butter, melted
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1/3 cup white sugar
• 4 green onions, chopped
• 1 fresh jalapeno pepper, chopped

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a loaf pan.

Whisk cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.

Mix buttermilk, beer, and melted butter in a separate bowl; gradually stir into the cornmeal mixture to incorporate into a batter. Add eggs and sugar to the batter; stir. Fold green onions and jalapeno pepper through the batter; pour into prepared loaf pan.

Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
