She has passed away, I have yet to find anything that compares to her sweet cornbread. While I must say that this is not the same as hers, it is the closest that I have had! It is wonderful and I am using it along with your cornbread dressing today for lunch! My grandmother used to make cornbread for me and always joked that I loved eating it better than cake!

I've never used that. If I had some, I'd just try it and call it a baking experiment! Cathy, I’m not sure about the fine-ground cornmeal. I’ve never used that.

Yesterday it was Grandmother Bread and Apple strudel loaf...today a big pot of beans and cornbread! I grew up with a Southern Mama and we had this often, though I haven't even thought of it in years until I saw it here. Kids won't go for it, so they get mac n cheese while I indulge in some memories. I have a question on the cornmeal, I have the Quaker kind (which I always use) and also a bag of fine cornmeal..are they both ok or would the fine be no good for this? I want to make the mix up while I'm at so thought I'd ask since I'm thinking the measurements would be different with different *grinds*? Me again :-) Told you I loved your site!

Thanks, Mary Suzanne,

Pulled out the cast iron skillet, heated some bacon fat in it,in the oven, while I made the batter then poured it into the hot pan. Its crispy on the top and bottom and absolutely delish. I added cheese and hot peppers. OMG …. well, I am a Canadian who makes cornbread and I thought I had the best recipe … but this beats it by miles.

Sat, 09 May 2009 15:48:00 +0000 http://chickensintheroad.com/blog/2008/02/23/my-cornbread/#comment-41538 You said: To use, scoop out about 2-1/4 cups mix, add your eggs, milk, oil/butter, and you’re all set. But you don't say how many eggs, or how much milk, oil/butter to use. (Sorry, another Canadian here, like the other Canucks have already said, cornbread is "exotic" up here) And like Jen(aside), two of my family are vegetarians so the bacon recipe is out. We love the 'sweet' cornbread, but can only get it at one restaurant or when we head to the southern states. Hubby is excited for me to try this. Have to go out and buy a cast-iron skillet though. Must be a southern thing. You said: To use, scoop out about 2-1/4 cups mix, add your eggs, milk, oil/butter, and you’re all set.
