This is an old southern dish that's good for holiday gatherings and family get-togethers. I love this recipe because it has such wonderful flavors in it, and I would serve it with fried chicken and green beans with sauteed sweet peppers.

Time 55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 ½ cups light cream
¼ cup butter
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon honey
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup cornmeal
4 eggs, separated
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 pinch ground white pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Butter a casserole or souffle dish.
  • Combine cream, butter, sugar, honey, and salt in a saucepan over low heat; cook and stir until butter melts, 2 to 3 minutes. Slowly stir cornmeal into cream mixture until thickened but not boiling, 3 to 5 minutes. Pour cornmeal mixture into a large bowl.
  • Beat egg yolks, 1 at a time, into cornmeal mixture, ensuring egg yolk is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir baking powder and white pepper into cornmeal-egg yolk mixture.
  • Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form sharp peaks. Fold egg whites into cornmeal-egg yolk mixture; pour into the prepared dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden and puffed, about 35 minutes.

I'm not a big fan of cornbread, but this spoon bread was surprisingly good. It was moist and flavorful, with a nice crispy crust. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a keeper! The spoon bread was light and fluffy, with a cheesy, flavorful crust. I served it with a side salad and it was a perfect meal.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my spoon bread didn't turn out. It was dense and gummy.

This spoon bread was a bit too dry for my taste, but the flavor was good.

I've made this spoon bread recipe several times now, and it's always a winner. It's so versatile - I've served it as a side dish with chicken or fish, as a main course with a salad, and even as a dessert with fruit. It's always a hit.
