Country Cornbread is thick and tender, savory and sweet, and every bite is better than the one before. Perfect as a sidekick to Grandma’s Homemade Chili or Slow Cooker Turkey Chili!
Cornbread Recipe
Cornbread was always hit or miss for me. It was either too “corny” or too “cakey” for my liking. Until I found this recipe. Sweet and tender chunks of bread, perfect for pairing with your favorite savory meals. I love it with ribs, barbeque, or chili.
If I am being honest though, cornbread isn’t really all that difficult to make. At the end of the day, it all comes down to your flavor preferences. Some people like it a little more chunky. I tend to prefer mine to taste like sweet bread and even more so if you drop a dollop of butter on top. *queue drool sequence*
