Double Pumpkin Cornbread with Red Onion

Share

This Double Pumpkin Cornbread with Red Onion is a great take on the classic cornbread recipe. The secret ingredient in this cornbread is a can of pumpkin puree. The double pumpkin in the title comes from the addition of pumpkin seeds scattered on top of the bread.

I start by heating a skillet in the oven. While it is heating, I combine flour, cornmeal, baking powder and salt in a large bowl before whisking together milk, cream cheese, pumpkin, honey and 7 tablespoons butter. Add the wet ingredients to the cornmeal mixture. Take the skillet from the oven and brush the bottom and sides with butter. Pour the cornbread batter into the skillet. Decorate the top with red onion slices and pumpkin seeds. Bake and serve drizzled with honey.
