Easy Cornbread Without Sugar
If you like sweet cornbread… I’m hoping to change that. Most cornbread I eat at friends’ houses or out at restaurants tends to have sugar in it. I grew up eating my Mom’s cornbread which is rich and savory. If you do like sweet cornbread, this recipe is super simple and is guaranteed you’ll never put sugar in your cornbread again 😉
Growing up, my family would eat cornbread with the most special meals, certainly Thanksgiving, and Christmas at Grandma’s house. I don’t mean to sound overly folksy- we just really love this cornbread recipe.
This cornbread recipe only has four ingredients and comes together in a pinch. It goes great with a bowl of black bean chili or next to your turkey and mashed potatoes. I’ll even eat a warmed square of this cornbread for breakfast, slathered with honey then poured over with cold milk.
Cornbread should be savory and once you’ve tried my Mom’s cornbread, I think you’ll agree.
