What a lovely cornbread recipe. It was delicious, even my dh who doesn't like most cornbread, enjoyed this one. It had a nice texture, was crispy on the outside and light, fluffy and tender on the inside, with a really nice flavor. Quick and easy to make, this recipe is a winner. Thank you so much for sharing. Made for Spring Safari Pac 2013.
