PERFECT CORNBREAD... EVERY TIME!
Promise me you will try this one!!! I guarantee a moist, slightly sweet, NOT crumbly corn bread, with NO bitter after taste. I have tried so many corn bread recipes my family is sick of trying them. I have created this recipe from my trials. I like my corn bread to have a nice corn flavor, to be moist and not crumble, and I like it a little sweet. I also DON'T like the bitter after taste so many corn breads have. Give it a shot, you won't regret it!

Tips:
- Use Fresh Cornmeal: Fresh cornmeal will have a sweeter, more flavorful taste than older cornmeal. If you can, try to find stone-ground cornmeal, as it has a more coarse texture that will give your cornbread a better texture.
- Add Sugar: Sugar is essential for making sweet cornbread. The amount of sugar you add will depend on your personal preference, but a good starting point is 1/2 cup.
- Use Buttermilk: Buttermilk will give your cornbread a lighter, fluffier texture. If you don't have 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.
- Don't Overmix: Overmixing the batter will make your cornbread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake at a High Temperature: Cornbread should be baked at a high temperature (400°F) so that it will rise quickly and have a crispy crust.
- Serve Warm: Cornbread is best served warm, right out of the oven. You can also toast it or grill it for a crispy texture.
Conclusion:
Sweet cornbread is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal preferences. With the right ingredients and a little bit of care, you can make a perfect batch of sweet cornbread that will be enjoyed by everyone at your table.
