Fluffy and savory cornbread filled with diced onion, shredded zucchini, and cheddar cheese. This cornbread is great for serving alongside a summer meal of grilled chicken or pork chops. It is so quick and easy to prepare this bread, and you get a healthy side dish filled with vegetables.
To make the cornbread mixture, equal parts flour and cornmeal are mixed together with sugar, salt, and baking powder. Milk, an egg, diced onion, shredded zucchini, and cheddar cheese are mixed together until a smooth batter forms. Spread the cornbread batter into a greased pie plate and bake until the top is lightly golden browned.
