How to Make the Best Redstone Corn Bread Recipe

Redstone started its food chain in Minnesota, Minneapolis. It’s a casual dining restaurant that has an atmosphere and menu comparable to other chains like TGI Fridays and Chilies.

One of their popular starters here is the lodge cornbread and crab dip. The cornbread here features a maple flavor which makes it oozing with sweetness. This article will show you how to make the closest Redstone cornbread recipe.

cornbread recipe

The basic ingredients that any cornbread recipe needs are cornmeal, buttermilk, eggs, and flour. These four components will be responsible for making the batter that you will use for the cornmeal.

Although these are the basic ingredients for cornbread, what separates Redstone’s cornbread from the rest is its richer flavor that also has a slight kick to it. For a creamier bread, we’ll be using a Monterey Jack and cheddar cheese along with creamed corn.​

Adding cheddar cheese will also help it enhance the richness. Finally, strained green chilies are a great way to give this cornbread a unique kick to the palate.​

The Procedure

 green chilies

Start by separating all the wet ingredients and dry ingredients. All of the dry ingredients will be blended first.

​Get a large bowl to prevent any unwanted spillage and mix the cornmeal, flour, and baking soda. Incorporate it thoroughly and add the salt and sugar after.

​As for the green chilies, dice it until it’s fine. You can use a knife and chop it by yourself, or you can blitz in the blender, adding just a drop of olive oil will release more of the flavors of the chilies, so consider doing that. Once you’re done, set it aside.

​Next, get another large bowl and pour in the buttermilk. Pouring the buttermilk first will give you an easier time mixing it all together. Since buttermilk is quite thick, it gets clumpy if you add it last.

butter

​After that, crack three eggs into a separate bowl and beat it thoroughly. Try to scramble the eggs for at least 2 minutes. This will prevent any whites that can form in your cornbread.

Melt the butter but don’t brown it too much. Browning the butter will cause it to give you a nutty flavor, which isn’t desired in cornbread. If you want to make it simpler, you can melt the butter for 1 minute inside a microwave.​

​Add all of the ingredients and mix it thoroughly. Then, add in the cheese mix which is made of grated Monterey jack and cheddar. Also, add the creamed corn.

Stir it until everything sets into a smooth batter. Remember, the cheese doesn’t have to be completely dissolved. You just want the buttermilk to mix in with the rest of the ingredients completely.​

Baking the Bread

Baking the bread

Before baking, get the green chilies that you have prepared earlier and mix it with the dry ingredients. Pour the dry ingredients into the batter using a sieve.

​Sifting your flour mixture will help prevent any lumps from forming inside the bread. Once you’ve sifted everything, get a spatula and mix it well.

​The consistency that you’re looking for should be a bit loose for better moisture. The texture of the batter with the dry ingredients should be close to the consistency of plain buttermilk.

​If it looks too loose, add more cornmeal. If it seems too dry, add more buttermilk.

​When everything’s set, get your baking tray and grease it with butter. This will help the bread to come out easier. Pour into the mixture and make sure there are no creases on top, so flatten it with your spatula.

​Bake it for 30-35 minutes in a preheated oven at 350-400 degrees Fahrenheit. You’ll know the bread is done if you stick a fork in the side and it comes out quickly.

Making the Maple Butter

Making the Maple Butter

Redstone is known to serve its cornbread with creamy maple butter. Making this is easy, you can either use an electric mixer or your hands for whisking. Just add 500 grams of softened butter and mix it until it loosens up.

Add a pinch of kosher salt while mixing. Afterward, pour in a cup of maple syrup. Keep mixing it until it completely incorporates the butter.​
