Green Chili Bread

A great Green Chili Bread that has the consistency of Cornbread. Packed full of flavors and pairs great with a good chili

Over the past few years, I’ve become very fond of cooking with Green Chilies. I’ve lost count of how many recipes I’ve made using Green Chilies but you can find most of them here: Recipes with Green Chilies. But this is the first time I recall making Green Chili Bread.

It’s not very often that I get to bake with green chilies so when this old recipe was shared with me, I just had to give it a try.

Since this Bread recipe doesn’t have any yeast in it, there is no waiting for the dough to rise. While I am calling this a “bread”, the consistency is more like cornbread. Regardless of what you call it, it’s delicious!

If you love Cornbread as much as I do, make sure you check out my collection of Cornbread Recipes.

If you don’t have any Buttermilk on hand and don’t feel like going to your local grocery store, check the Chef’s Notes on the recipe card for an easy substitute.
