Tips:

  • Use fresh corn kernels. Fresh corn kernels have a sweeter and more flavorful taste than frozen or canned corn.
  • Brown the butter. Browning the butter adds a nutty and caramelized flavor to the cornbread. Be sure to watch the butter closely so that it does not burn.
  • Use buttermilk or sour cream. Buttermilk or sour cream adds a tangy flavor and helps to make the cornbread moist and tender.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter can result in a tough and dense cornbread. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cornbread in a hot oven. A hot oven helps to create a crispy crust and a tender interior.
