Cornbread that is moist, tender and full of flavor
LOVE Corn Bread but not the heavy kind that when you eat it you’re afraid to go swimming afterward? No fear with this delight! It’s a perfect pairing for chili, stew or a substantial soup if you want a side or stretching the budget.
You’ll find my recipe of this corn bread can be served all on it’s own, or with some honey butter that I show you how to make below, or all alone….oh, you’ve got a winner.
It even get’s better after ‘resting’ for a day! Let’s get some made shall we:)

Then add to the creamed mixture.Now add in the buttermilk

Pour the mixture into a the prepared pan – you can make TWO – 8″ x 8″ or 9″ x 9″ pans instead of ONE – 9″ x 13″ pan if desired to take with a meal to someone in need. Except I’d recommend making it in the foil pan I suggest in What You Need To Know About Taking In A Meal They Will Want To Eat

OR 12 JUMBO muffin cups OR 24 regular muffin cups.

Bake for approximately
25-30 minutes for the regular muffins
30-35 minutes for the Jumbo Muffins
35-45 minutes for the 9″ x 13″ pans
And ALL just until a toothpick comes out clean.

Serve with butter or honey butter.
TO MAKE THE HONEY BUTTER
Ingredients:
1/2 cup REAL salted butter (1 stick) – needs to be softened NOT melted!
1/4 – 1/3 cup of honey; depending on your taste
spray release, optional
Directions:
In a stand up mixer, or a bowl and using a mixer, whip the butter for 2 minutes to make it light and fluffy.
Spray your measuing cup lightly with spray release then pour in the honey and it will just slid right out as you pour!
Measure your honey into the measuring cup and begin pouring into the mixing bowl as it’s going on low to medium speed.

See how all the honey just slides right out!

Homemade Honey Butter
When all the honey is in the butter, mix on medium-high for 1 minute.
Use within one hour or so with your CORNBREAD and keep any leftovers in a cold place or in the fridge.

Can you believe I was looking for a cornbread recipe just yesterday! I was in a hurry and ended up using crackers. Such a disappointment. This looks amazing! I am pinning this one and can’t wait to try it 🙂 You are being featured!
I am a huge cornbread fan. I just LOVE every type. This looks like it has a lot of sugar in it which would probably be my favorite cornbread ever. I really do have a huge sweet tooth.
Thanks for sharing at Saturday Dishes.

Carrie,
Stopping by to grab this for my roundup. I would love this. I can see from the sugar why it is called cake. YUM!
