Have been perfecting this cornbread recipe for years. My Southern family does not like sweet cornbread. It is hard to find a good recipe. Should be moist and buttery. Top with butter to serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cornmeal. Fresh cornmeal will give your cornbread a more flavorful and moist texture. If you can't find fresh cornmeal, you can use stone-ground cornmeal, which is a good substitute.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your cornbread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cornbread in a hot oven. A hot oven will help the cornbread rise and give it a crispy crust.
  • Let the cornbread cool slightly before serving. This will help the cornbread hold its shape when you cut it.

Conclusion:

Cornbread is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. It's also a great way to use up leftover cornmeal. With so many different recipes to choose from, you're sure to find a cornbread recipe that you'll love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish, give cornbread a try!
