“This is corn cake, not real cornbread, may as well add a frosting with sprinkles, serve as a birthday cake. Cornbread does not have sugar. It can be sweetened by drizzling honey or maple syrup to the individual cut pieces, not to the entire pan, this makes” — a cook, 5.0★
“This cornbread is delicious. I wish it were a little smaller recipe, i.e. 2 cups flour/cornmeal instead of 2 1/2 cups so it would fit better in my 9" skillet. Dont get me wrong...it's still 5 star. I baked it for supper and had kielbasa sausage and Waldorf Sal” — a cook, 5.0★
