I've tried many cornbread recipes over the years, but this one is by far the best. The oven-frying method gives it a perfect crispy crust and the cornbread itself is moist and flavorful. I highly recommend this recipe!

This oven-fried cornbread was a hit with my family! It was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside, with a delicious buttery flavor. I loved that it was so easy to make - just a few simple ingredients and steps. I will definitely be making this
