Ingredients

for my light and fluffy cornbread:

now you must decide if you like it corny or more bread like??

you like it corney? add 2 cup cornmeal to 1cup flour

you like it more bread like 1/2 cup cornmeal to 2/1/2 flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 tablespoon baking soda

you like it sweet? add 3 tablepsoons of sugar

1/1/2 teaspoon salt

2 eggs

1/2 to 1 cup whole milk

if you like your light and fluffy cornbread to have holes add tinny cold butter cubes in right befor cooking

for a dence and rich cornbread:

again decide do you like it corney? 2 cups cornmeal to 1 cup flour

or more bread like 1/2 cornmeal to 2/1/2 flour

now only use 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

no baking soda

2 eggs adn one egg yolk

1/2 cup whole milk or cream

1/2 cup sourcream or few tablespoons buttermilk

you can add a 1/4 cup meltes shorting or lard to make it a rich flakey bread

also decide if you like it sweet with 3 tablespoons of sugar

Directions

for both light and fluffy and rich and dence you should make up your dry ingredients a day or week befor so the flavors can marry together

for light and fluffy take your eggs and seperate egg whites from yolkes beat whites until a stiff peak in a large bowl add dry mix with egg yolk and milk start with 1/2 cup add more if looks to be needed

stir in the egg whites with a folding action to make sure its light add butter cubes now if you like holes always butter your pan glass always has worked best for me bake at 400 for a darker loaf and shorter time at about 20 min or 350 for a light color and even lighter texture for 25 min.

for your rich and dence cornbread

add dry ingredients into bowl with eggs and extra yolks add milk and melted shortning or lard mix well add sourcream or buttermilk

this one you need to bake a low temp 325 for like 30 min to make sure you dont lose all that moisture when you take it out put it on the counter top not a cookie rack like ive seen in the past that will just dry it out

cornbread is always better with honey butter

recipe:

let a stick of butter soften on the counter top or stove top to speed up the melting then stir in 3 tablespoons on honey use a good honey wildflower is my favorite. i love it when thier not all combind but it has huge gobbs of honey in some spots and some just butter spots, oh ya spread this all over your favorite kina cornbread and enjoy!!
