Very Nice results - moist crumb, delicate and crispy crust. I would definitely compare to Redstone cornbread although at Redstone there is a caramelized crust - I think they top it with brown sugar before baking. I will try this the next time. Also, the butter could have been sweeter in comparison to Redstone - I will top with sugar the next time.

Loved the corn bread, though I confess I did not make the accompanying maple butter. I doubled the recipe and used a 9 x 13 heavy enamelware casserole dish which worked a treat in lieu of a cast iron skillet. Everyone had seconds and my company asked for extra to take home. Thanks Korissacook and Redstone!
