SOUTHERN COUNTRY CORNBREAD



Southern Country Cornbread image

Watching my grandpa make cornbread over the years I am now soo sad I never asked him for the recipe, that and his biscuits are now lost forever, I am trying to recreate them and this is the closest I've come to the cornbread. Though it is nowhere near what he made. It is a tweaking of several recipes and of what I remember, and do not add sugar!! I will cry if anyone does!!

Country Cornbread Stuffing image

My mom has been making this for many years and would have a very unhappy family if she didn't make this at Thanksgiving. It's very easy to throw together and so good! The ingredients listed as optional are listed like that because I never use them and my stuffing turns out just fine! I hope you and your family will enjoy it as much as mine!

COUNTRY KITCHEN CORNBREAD

This is a mildly sweet, buttery cornbread...quite old-fashioned except for the use of sour cream. However, the sour cream imparts a moistness and delicious flavor.

COUNTRY CORNBREAD

Categories     Bread     Side     Bake     Hominy/Cornmeal/Masa

Yield 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup buttermilk or heavy cream
2 large eggs
4 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted, cooled
1 tsp maple flavor, or 2 Tbsp of maple syrup
3/4 cup all purpose flour
3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup sugar
2 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 c frozen corn kernels
1 minced jalapeño chili with seeds (optional)

Steps:

  • 1 Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 8x8x2-inch metal or silicone baking pan. 2 Whisk buttermilk and egg in medium bowl to blend then whisk in melted butter and maple flavor. In a separate large bowl, whisk flour, cornmeal, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda to blend. Stir in corn and jalapeño. 3 Add buttermilk mixture to dry ingredients and stir just until blended (do not over mix). Transfer batter to prepared pan (batter will come only about 3/4 inch up sides of pan). 4 Bake cornbread until lightly browned on top and tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Transfer pan to rack and cool cornbread completely in pan. The cornbread will crack if taken out of the pan while it is still hot. (Cornbread can be stored for a week if covered tightly with foil and stored at room temperature. It can also be refrigerated or frozen for later use.)

Tips:

  • For a sweeter cornbread, use 1 cup of sugar instead of 1/2 cup.
  • To add a little spice, add 1 teaspoon of chili powder or cayenne pepper to the batter.
  • For a cheesy cornbread, add 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese to the batter.
  • For a crispy crust, bake the cornbread in a preheated cast iron skillet.
  • To make sure the cornbread is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the cornbread is done.

Conclusion:

Country cornbread is a versatile and delicious side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like it sweet, spicy, or cheesy, there is a country cornbread recipe out there for you. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy side dish, give country cornbread a try.
