Spicy Sweetcorn and Cheese Loaf

Spicy Sweetcorn and Cheese Loaf, a savoury rustic bread with the most amazing and bold flavours. Four of my favourite ingredients, chilli, sweetcorn, cheese and chives, really bring out the magic in this loaf.

Working together to create a great bread to be eaten on its own or as a great accompaniment with soups stews or even salads.

Spicy Sweetcorn and Cheese Loaf

For the past few days, a slice of this loaf and coffee has been my breakfast. Spread with cottage cheese, chopped chives and dried chilli flakes, it tastes just so good. It also serves as a quick and convenient make-ahead breakfast or snack.

The good news is that it is really easy to make and contains simple ingredients, which I always have in my kitchen and you might have in yours too.

No special equipment needed

Besides being easy to make and using simple ingredients, this recipe requires no special equipment.

Just 2 bowls, one for the dry ingredients and another for the wet ingredients. A fork or whisk is used to combine the two, and is simply emptied into a loaf pan. Pretty perfect don't you think?

Making the Spicy Sweetcorn and Cheese Loaf

For this recipe, I used my 3lb traditional deep farmhouse loaf tin which measures approximately 13x5x3 inches ((35x14x10cm

If you do not have a tin which is this size, then you can divide the mixture in half and use either two square or round 9 inches / 23cm tins.  

Fresh or frozen sweetcorn can be used for this loaf. Coat the sweetcorn in a tablespoon of flour first. This is to prevent the corn from sinking to the bottom of the bread while baking.

The eggs, melted butter, buttermilk, and milk are mixed. This is added to the dry ingredients which are a mixture of sweetcorn flour, chives or scallions, cheese, dry chilli flakes and salt.

Spoon and level the mixture in your preferred pan and bake for 30 minutes until a skewer inserted comes out clean.

Brushing the top of the loaf with melted butter after baking gives the loaf a shiny finish. , it also softens the crust a bit and you get that delicious buttery taste.

How to serve this loaf 

Spread with cottage cheese or butter or serve with your favourite soup or stew.

Or try toasting a slice, top with an egg and serve with a salad. A great loaf adding so much of vibrance and flavour to any dish...this is comfort food at its best.

Your Spicy Sweetcorn and Cheese Loaf sounds like a perfect match for my morning coffee as well. Will definitely make this one and soon. Can't wait to try it with my daily ration of goat cheese and avocado spread.

I never make enough savoury quick-breads, you have inspired me to hit the kitchen tomorrow and make savoury instead of sweetbreads. Lovely recipe 😀

This loaf was delicious. I made a half recipe. The green onion flavor is very pronounced so I may cut back on that ingredient next time. The instructions are missing to add the baking powder with the dry ingredients.
