    • Try any of these variations:
    Jalapeno Cornbread. Stir one minced jalapeno into mixture with the corn kernels.
    Blueberry Cornbread. Substitute 3/4 cup frozen, unthawed blueberries or fresh blueberries for the corn kernels and brown sugar for the granulated sugar. Sprinkle batter with 2 tablespoons granulated sugar before baking.

    Ingredients

    Serves:

      • 2 cups homemade baking mix* (see below)
      • 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
      • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
      • 1 cup buttermilk
      • 2 large eggs, beaten well
      • 3/4 cups frozen corn kernels, thawed
      • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

    Directions

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease 8" baking pan. In a large bowl, whisk together homemade baking mix, cornmeal, and sugar together until combined.

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and beaten eggs. Fold the buttermilk mixture into the cornmeal mixture. Gently stir in the corn kernels.

    Spread the cornbread mixture into prepared pan. Bake 25 to 30 minutes, or until the cornbread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Brush the cornbread with the melted butter. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

    Great recipe, but my Southern cornbread doesn't contain sugar. I heat my old cast iron skillet with a little oil in it and pour my batter into the hot skillet. Gives you a crust to die for! Fix greens and black eyed peas. It is slap your mama good !!
