SWEET CORNBREAD - BONNIE STERN



Sweet Cornbread - Bonnie Stern image

I'm such a lover of cornbread, that I couldn't pass up this version. Another wonderful recipe from her book "Friday Night Dinners". Bonnie writes that "she received this recipe from executive chef Anthony Rose of Toronto's Drake Hotel". Very easy and flavourful. She also mentions that the follow may be added: diced olives, sun-dried tomatoes or fresh herbs. We enjoyed the plain version very much. Easily halved and baked in a 9 x 9 pan.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality cornmeal. This will give your cornbread the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cornbread tough.
  • Let the batter rest for a few minutes before baking. This will allow the cornmeal to absorb the liquid and produce a more tender crumb.
  • Bake the cornbread in a preheated oven. This will help it rise evenly.
  • Don't overbake the cornbread. Overbaking can make it dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cornbread cool slightly before serving. This will help it hold its shape.
