This was a great southern recipie! My husband and I are experiencing "empty nest syndrome" for the first time, and it was perfect for the two of us, with just enough for leftovers the next day!

So easy, and not too dry! Used my #5 Wagner Iron skillet, perfect! Next time I will add a teaspoon of cinnamon and brown sugar on top for a nice dessert cornbread!

I'm gonna try this in my 8-inch cast iron fry pan. Will post my results.

I made this today and it came out with a perfect crust. On my next pan I will leave out all or most of the salt, it was quite salty.. otherwise great.

The style of this cornbread is not the light cake-like sweet cornbread, but rather the heavier crumbly, not very sweet kind. Dining alone tonight so I made a batch just for me and baked it in my 5" cast iron skillet (5" measured with the skillet turned upside down and the tape measure applied to the bottom). It rose nicely and was lightly brown in 18 minutes in my oven. Had half the pan with a big bowl of beans and bacon and it was SUPERB. It held up nicely, didn't get soggy and complimented the spicy beans perfectly without being too sweet. Looking forward to the other half of the pan with some honey butter and hot coffee for breakfast. Thanks for the recipe, I will use it often.

My husband LOVES cornbread, but for just the two of us a big skillet was too much. This is perfect. Or it was, until my doctor outlawed gluten for me. I modified your recipe to replace the 1/2 cup of regular flour with 2 tbsp. potato starch, 3 tbsp. brown rice flour, and 3 tbsp. of corn flour. My husband thought it was your original recipe and I could have some too. Thank you twice!

Excellent!

I just made this recipe so I can use it to make cornbread dressing for Easter dinner for just myself and I will freeze a portion of the dressing for later use. The recipe is perfect amount and the cornbread taste really good, however I would cut the salt down to 1 half teaspoon its a little too salty for me. I will always use this recipe now!

Nice portion for 2 people... don't have a skillet so used a large muffin pan and it made 2 muffins - perfect with chili for 2. It needs to be sweeter - used 1 1/2 teaspoons of sugar and still not sweet enough. will add more next time.

I live in Thailand. In Texas I used packaged mix that you can't find here so tonight I made this recipe minus the sugar. They don't have many ovens here so I pan fried it which I do in summer anyway so I don't heat the kitchen. Oh my gosh it was so good! I made pinto beans and cornbread for my Thai girlfriend to try. She loved them. Even took pictures to show her friends. I'm going back to Texas in a week and don't think I'll buy anymore of the packages. Oh and we are a whole double batch!
