Broccoli Cheddar Cornbread

This Broccoli Cheddar Cornbread works perfectly as a side dish for chili, soup, pork chops, BBQ or just on its own. It’s even great as a snack – just bake it in a muffin tin for an easy grab-and-go treat!

Should I use frozen broccoli or fresh broccoli?

You can use either. For convenience, just toss in a package of frozen. If you don’t want to thaw and drain the frozen chopped broccoli that comes in a solid block, just get a frozen package that’s made up of florets. You can thaw them just a bit in your microwave to make them a little easier to chop into smaller bites. There’s no draining required because there’s no water accumulation with a frozen package of broccoli florets. If you use fresh broccoli, again, just chop the florets into bite-sized pieces and you’re good to go.

What can I substitute for cheddar cheese?

If you don’t have cheddar cheese on hand or you just don’t like it, try pepper jack cheese for a little zing. You definitely want a cheese that’s hard enough to grate and shred, so even a block of Swiss or Gruyere would be good. And if you’re really adventurous, combine a few varieties!
