Add the milk, unsalted butter, and honey into the bread machine's pan. Make sure the butter is softened or cut into small pieces for even mixing.
Layer the all-purpose flour followed by the yellow cornmeal on top of the liquid ingredients, creating a barrier to separate the liquid from the yeast.
Sprinkle the granulated sugar and salt on top of the flour mixture. Do not let these come in direct contact with the liquid below.
Make a small well in the center of the flour and add the instant dry yeast. Avoid letting the yeast touch the liquid at this stage.
Add the diced jalapeño, canned corn kernels, and shredded cheddar cheese (if using) around the edges of the pan. Do not place these directly into the yeast well.
Set your bread machine to the 'Basic' or 'White Bread' setting. Select the medium crust color option, if available.
Start the bread machine and allow it to complete the mixing, kneading, rising, and baking cycles. This process typically takes around 3 hours, but times may vary by machine.
Once the bread machine signals that the bread is done, carefully remove the pan from the machine using oven mitts. Let the bread cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes.
Turn the bread out of the pan onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing. This prevents the bread from becoming soggy at the bottom.
Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or freeze for longer storage.
