I'm not sure how I personally feel about this. It made for a VERY moist bread, though it was quite rich. I had a guest who really loved it. Other's said it was "interesting" and ate their portions but didn't ask for seconds. My hubby liked it, but he wasn't jumping out of his chair. I'm giving it 3 stars because of this mixed reviews.

We loved this and I am a bama girl.I made beef stew and wanted something different to try with it. The only thing I did different was used soy flour and less sugar as we don't like our cornbread to be too sweet. The sour cream, milk and butter I used were low fat.I used the prepackaged feta cheese chunks.Of course cooked in my grandmothers old cast iron skillet.I put my oiled skillet in the oven as I mixed up the batter and then poured the mix in the hot skillet and finished baking. It turned out crunchy on outside, cheesy and moist on the inside. It was so good. Will use again. Thank you for this great twist on an old favorite.
