Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients. Fresh corn kernels yield the best flavor and texture in cornbread.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cornbread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a hot oven. A hot oven helps the cornbread rise and brown properly.
  • Don't crowd the cornbread in the pan. Give the cornbread enough space to spread out so that it can cook evenly.
  • Let the cornbread cool before serving. This will help it to set and make it easier to slice.
