This recipe comes from my mother-in-law in Canada. It's the most moist corn bread that I have ever tasted. It's great with chili con carne or as stuffing for your holiday turkey.

2/3 cup white sugar

Bake in preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center of the cornbread comes out clean.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cornmeal: Fresh cornmeal will give your cornbread a more flavorful and moist texture. If you can't find fresh cornmeal, you can use store-bought cornmeal, but be sure to check the expiration date.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your cornbread tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a cast iron skillet: A cast iron skillet will give your cornbread a crispy crust and a moist interior. If you don't have a cast iron skillet, you can use a regular baking pan, but your cornbread may not be as crispy.
  • Add some toppings: Cornbread is delicious on its own, but you can also add some toppings to make it even better. Some popular toppings include butter, honey, maple syrup, and chili.

Conclusion:

Cornbread is a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like it plain or with toppings, cornbread is a great choice for any meal.
