Sweet, spicy, and buttery — Chef Kenny’s Jalapeño Hennessy Honey Cornbread combines golden crust, rich glaze, and Southern flavor perfection. Bold flavor meets Southern soul —

alapeño Cornbread with Henny Honey Glaze is a bold Southern-inspired recipe that balances heat, sweetness, and comfort in every bite. This cornbread starts soft and moist with classic corn flavor, then gets elevated with diced jalapeños that bring just enough heat to wake things up without overpowering the bread. The texture stays tender and rich, making it the perfect base for the glaze that takes this dish to another level.

The Henny honey glaze is where the magic happens. Smooth honey blended with a touch of Hennessy adds warmth, depth, and a subtle richness that complements the jalapeño heat beautifully. Drizzled over warm cornbread, the glaze soaks in slightly while still leaving a glossy finish that adds sweetness and balance.

This recipe is perfect for holidays, cookouts, soul food dinners, or anytime you want a side dish that people actually remember. It pairs effortlessly with fried chicken, barbecue, greens, or enjoyed on its own as a standout comfort bite.
