Tips:

  • Choose the right cornbread mix. You can use a store-bought mix or make your own from scratch. If you're using a store-bought mix, be sure to check the label to make sure it doesn't contain any added sugar.
  • Add some extra flavor to your cornbread. You can add a variety of ingredients to your cornbread to give it extra flavor, such as diced peppers, onions, or cheese.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your cornbread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cornbread in a hot oven. This will help it to rise and brown properly.
  • Let the cornbread cool before serving. This will help it to set and make it easier to slice.
