I’m 100% with you, don’t want any sugar in my cornbread. It’s cornBREAD not cornCAKE! Same with grits, they should get butter and salt, don’t go adulterating my grits with sugar.

In reply to LAVONDA Nelson. Lavonda you'll just need to check them for doneness with a toothpick. I've made this recipe in a muffin tin many times with success. Start checking them at 12-15 minutes depending on your oven. --Rachel

This is a fantastic recipe for real southern cornbread, I have made it exactly as written a bunch and it has never disappointed. This recipe tastes just like the cornbread my wonderful grandmother named Mamu made and I truly appreciate that you shared your recipe.

Use white cornmeal mix only. You can add chopped jalapeños, a cup of cheddar cheese, & a cup of creamed corn for a tasty Mexican cornbread dish. Great with fish, or greens & beans. Truly Deep South deliciousness!

I’ve been using this recipe ever since I found it. My dad was a chef and it tastes like his. Just wondering if anyone has tried adding jalapenos. I’m going to a cookout and thought it would be a fun way to jazz it up.

I tried this one. It was so good. I mean Good! So the next time I made it I ran out of oil so I slapped butter in my cast iron and once it was melted I poured it in… ohhh it was better and I didn’t think it could get better.
Thank you for the recipe.
