GRANDMOTHER'S BUTTERMILK CORNBREAD
This is BETHANY WEATHERSBY's from AllRecipes.com grandmother's recipe. I must say it is the best cornbread I've ever made and consume. It is sweet and moist, fast and easy to make. In the time it takes to preheat my oven I had prepared the recipe and ready to bake. Tastes so much better than the box kind. I had to put the recipe here because I keep all my favorite recipes on recipezaar.com.

Tips:
- Use fresh buttermilk. Fresh buttermilk will give your cornbread a tangy flavor and a light, fluffy texture. If you don't have fresh buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
- Use a cast iron skillet. A cast iron skillet will give your cornbread a crispy crust and a evenly cooked interior. If you don't have a cast iron skillet, you can use a 9x13 inch baking pan, but the cornbread will not be as crispy.
- Preheat your oven. Preheat your oven to the temperature specified in the recipe before you start making the cornbread. This will help ensure that the cornbread cooks evenly.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the cornbread tough. Stir the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cornbread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will usually take about 25-30 minutes.
Conclusion:
Grandmother's Buttermilk Cornbread is a delicious and easy-to-make recipe that is perfect for any occasion. With its crispy crust, fluffy interior, and tangy flavor, this cornbread is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a delicious side dish, give Grandmother's Buttermilk Cornbread a try. You won't be disappointed!
