Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking pan or an equivalent size baking dish.
Mix Wet Ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, milk, and eggs until well combined.
Add Dry Ingredients:
Add the self-rising cornmeal to the wet mixture and stir until the batter is smooth.
Add Flavor:
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, chopped onion, and ground red pepper. Mix until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Bake:
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool and Serve:
Let the cornbread cool slightly before cutting into squares. Serve warm as a side dish or on its own!
