Method

  1. Preheat oven to 190°C.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the polenta, flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, milk, melted butter and Jibba's Hot Honey.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Fold through the grated cheddar and chopped jalapeño.
  6. Line a loaf tin with baking paper and pour in the batter. Top with a few extra jalapeño slices if you like.
  7. Allow the batter to rest for 20 minutes before baking.
  8. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until golden brown and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
  9. While still warm, brush generously with melted butter and finish with a drizzle of Jibba's Hot Honey.
Jibba's TipWant it milder? Use 30 g Jibba's Hot Honey + 30 g regular honey instead of the full 60 g Hot Honey.

Hot Honey

The sweet-heat backbone of this whole recipe. Just as good on pizza, fried chicken or a cheese board.
