Great cornbread! I couldn't find self-rising cornmeal; I made half of the recipe and added 2 teaspoons of baking powder. Mine was perfectly cooked in the 25 minutes. This cornbread is not too sweet; the texture and flavor make it good for serving with soups or chili. And of course, I love leftovers for breakfast, warmed and topped with maple syrup! Thanks for sharing the recipe! Made for Fall PAC 2012
