Maple-Pecan Cornbread image

Our state trails only Vermont in the production of maple syrup in the U.S. I have many childhood memories of tapping our maple trees in early spring and watching the sap come out. Corn bread, or johnnycake as it's called here in scenic Mohawk Valley, was a staple of the men fighting in the Revolutionary War. The volunteers, who were known as "Johnnys", carried their rations with them, and the johnnycakes held up well for days.

This cornbread is a great way to use up leftover corn. I always have a few ears of corn left over after a cookout, and this is the perfect recipe to use them up.

I followed the recipe exactly and my cornbread turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.
