Perfect Cornbread... Every Time! image

Promise me you will try this one!!! I guarantee a moist, slightly sweet, NOT crumbly corn bread, with NO bitter after taste. I have tried so many corn bread recipes my family is sick of trying them. I have created this recipe from my trials. I like my corn bread to have a nice corn flavor, to be moist and not crumble, and I like it a little sweet. I also DON'T like the bitter after taste so many corn breads have. Give it a shot, you won't regret it!

Tips:

  • Use fresh cornmeal. Fresh cornmeal will give your cornbread a more flavorful and moist texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your cornbread tough.
  • Use a hot oven. A hot oven will help your cornbread to rise and brown properly.
  • Don't open the oven door during baking. Opening the oven door during baking will cause your cornbread to fall.
  • Let the cornbread cool slightly before serving. This will help the cornbread to hold its shape and prevent it from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Cornbread is a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed in many different ways. Whether you like it plain, with butter, or with honey, cornbread is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy bread to make, give cornbread a try. You won't be disappointed!
