I’m a boxed cornbread girl but I had all the ingredients for this (and no box mix) so I threw this together to go with my Skillet Baked Beans. Let me just tell you, I think this will be my go to cornbread recipe from here on out. I ate it with butter slathered on it and it was the perfect addition on a chilly day. I even had a slice for a late-night snack. But don’t tell anyone.
Oh, and the original recipe called for 1/3 c honey but I could only squeeze out 1/4 c from my bottle and it worked. The recipe also called for making it in a skillet, but alas I only have one cast iron skillet so I made it in a pie plate. That worked too. Adapt is my middle name.
