  1. I added a 7 ounce can of green chilies and a handful of cheddar cheese. I also committed sacrilege and added a fat 1/4 cup of sugar. Preheated the skillet in the 450 oven and it took 17 minutes. Wonderful recipe, thanks for sharing.
     
  2. The texture of the cornbread in the skillet was good. The buttermilk was way too much. No one would eat it because it tasted sour. The cooks in the crowd suggested adding sugar to the recipe. I think I would just prefer to change the buttermilk for regular milk. Sorry. Maybe sour cornbread is an acquired taste.
     
  3. I have it cooking in my oven, as written, with the only small change being a Tbs. of onion powder. I plan to use it in turkey breast stuffing. Will let you all know the family reviews. Thanks for the recipe, kitty!
     
  4. This was a good cornbread. I think cornbread tastes the best when it is cooked in a cast iron skillet. This cornbread remind me of how one of our friends use to make theirs. Thanks Ashley Anne. Bullwinkle.
