MOIST NORTHERN CORNBREAD (CORNBREAD BUTTERMILK)
I wanted a moist, tender recipe and this one fits the bill. My own twist on a classic recipe. It's even great the next day! You can find the powdered buttermilk in the baking isle at Wal-Mart or your favorite grocery store. It keeps a long time and is a great kitchen essential. TIP: Spray cast iron pan with non-stick spray and place in the oven for 5-10 minutes. Pour in cornbread until cups are 2/3 full. Cooks in half the time and tastes even better!

- Preheat your oven: Make sure your oven is fully preheated before you put the cornbread in. This will help to ensure that it cooks evenly.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cornbread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
