Tips:

Use buttermilk or yogurt: Buttermilk or yogurt adds a tangy flavor and moisture to the cornbread. You can also use sour cream, but it will make the cornbread slightly denser.
Use fresh or frozen corn: Fresh corn is best, but frozen corn can also be used. If using frozen corn, thaw it before adding it to the batter.
Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet: A well-seasoned cast iron skillet will give the cornbread a crispy crust and even cooking. If you don't have a cast iron skillet, you can use a 9x13 inch baking pan.
Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cornbread tough. Stir just until the ingredients are combined.
Bake the cornbread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the cornbread is cooked through.

Conclusion:

Yogurt cornbread is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is moist, flavorful, and has a crispy crust. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect yogurt cornbread every time.
