Chose this recipe to go along with recipe#144954 and it was not only good but very forgiving. I made a MAJOR mistake that I didn't find until they were already in the oven and partly baked. I'd forgotten the baking soda!!! As a result they didn't rise and were heavy, but the taste was still great. Slightly sweet and went perfect with our spicy chili. Soooo, my photo isn't so pretty but as I was making these as part of "Help a naked recipe game" I had to post it. Next time I make them, and these will be my go to cornbread recipe - I'll post a better one. Even DH, who prefers a spicy over sweet cornbread - loved this one as it wasn't to sweet

Delicious! Exactly what I was looking for - a very light, sweet, and moist cornbread. I did make a couple changes - used whole wheat flour, brown sugar, and heated the baking pan with a little oil while mixing the batter to give it a crispy crust. I also omitted the honey on top, as I found the bread sweet enough without. Perhaps I'll use honey in the batter instead of sugar next time.

I teach at both a high school and college several miles away from home. Cooking during the week is sometimes difficult to do so I'm always looking for easy recipes I can incorporate into a busy week. On weekends, you'll usually find me cooking up a storm for occassional leftovers for the week or to entertain guests.
My favorite tool to cook with... the grill. If I didn't live so close to the cities, I'd cook over an open pit fire every night.
