I found this similar to the one on the corn bread box. Are used buttermilk and also added half a cup of grated cheddar cheese I baked it in a cast-iron frying pan. it was moist and delicious!
Very tasty slightly sweet corn bread!
I guess I need help with this one, as the butter and sugar, by using a hand held beater, never got light and fluffy. Seemed to get heavier. It was good right out of the oven, but I found it to be very dry, crumbly and without extra butter and/or honey, I didn’t think it was anything special. I won’t make it again, unless someone can show we what I did wrong.
Quick, easy and delicious
This recipe is delightfully tasty and is perfect for our family!
Recipe is incredibly fast and easy to make. Bakes wonderful but my only critique is the bread is a tiny bit dry. Phyllis in Anaheim, Ca. ??
Like other reviewers, I also found this to be a good, basic corn bread recipe. It s quick to make, and easy to make only half a batch, which is important to me.
This is the recipe on the box of corn meal that I use all the time. I just drizzle honey all over the top before baking. My family loves it with Chili.
