Cornbread. Everyone's mother makes it their own way, I'm sure. I don't know if my mom just didn't know how to make cornbread or what, but I never liked it. Cornbread was dry and gritty and just...ugh.
Then one of my adult sons made his own version of cornbread, using a Jiffy mix. DELICIOUS! I'm sure there are many other recipes for this kind of cornbread, but this is one that we put together and enjoyed!
I made it again yesterday to accompany gumbo. My 1 year old granddaughter decided to make the cornbread her dinner, turning up her nose at chicken & gravy. She had 3 pieces with her milk!
I didn't really follow a recipe. My son gave vague instructions, and here is what I did.
Delicious Cornbread
2 boxes Jiffy corn muffin mix
1 can cream corn (whole corn will work, too)
2 Tbsp. granulated sugar
2 eggs
2/3 c. milk
Mix all together. Pour into greased 9 x 13 pan. Bake at 400°F for 22 - 24 minutes.
Note: recipe can be halved
