Everyone in my family loved this cornbread. The recipe makes A LOT so next time I will cut it in half .

Not my favorite recipe.  I liked that it wasn’t overly sweet.  However, it didn’t have a lot of flavor.  It was okay.

This cornbread is amazing! It’s flavorful and bakes up golden brown. I cut the recipe in half and baked most of the batter in a greased 7″ x 11″ pan. I filled the pan 3/4 full. I added a little more flour because we live at 5900 feet elevation. I also turned down the oven temperature to 375 for the last 16 min of the 45 minutes it baked. It turned out moist and firm. This is my new go to cornbread recipe.
