Who doesn’t love cornbread muffins? 😀
I have fond memories of my Mom making cornbread when I was a kid. The anticipation of getting a fresh muffin from the oven, spreading butter on it and watching the butter melt into it! Yum!
I remember me and my brother making them from Jiffy box mixes, because we liked them so much. All my Aunts and my Grandma made them too, cornbread was just something our family did.
There are all kinds. Moist, dry, sweet, etc. Baked in muffin tins, loaf pans, or cast iron skillets.
I really like them to have some sweetness, but not be like a dessert. They should be moist and have some crumb to them, not be dry like the desert.
This recipe is my current favorite. It has a good balance of sweet and crumb…. good stuff!
So easy to make from scratch, no need to by mixes ever again.
Let me know what you think.
