Appalachian Cornbread image

On this westernmost ridge of the Appalachians, we get abundant rain and sunshine, which allows our children to grow a super sweet corn crop. With staggered plantings, there is enough to eat from mid-July through August, plus plenty to freeze for the long winter. This cornbread is just one way we use some of the bounty! -Anne Wiehler, Farmington, Pennsylvania

This cornbread is a great side dish for any meal. It's also really good on its own with a little butter and honey.
