Corn Bread

This is an easy to prepare, mildly-flavored cornbread. I tried this at a friend's house years ago, and promptly asked for the recipe. This has been extremely helpful over the years, as we have picky eaters around here who won't touch cornbread that has actual corn in it, but they gobble this one up! We really like it warm with a bit of butter and honey, or alongside some chili, etc.
