THROWBACK RECIPE- Fake Cornbread

Cornbread

Cornbread is one of those side dishes that causes a lot of controversy.

In some states adding sugar to your cornbread can be cause for justifiable homicide. KIDDING…well, sort of. And if you make them in a muffin tin, well then they are corn muffins, not bread. And some women would rather die than admit they didnt use a cast iron skillet to cook their cornbread in.

See…it’s controversial!!

This cornbread isn’t your traditional cornbread …like at all.

When I found this recipe in a vintage church cookbook, It was titled South Carolina Style cornbread. Being from the Carolinas, I was immediately drawn to it and I wanted to compare how it stacked up against my own .

As I looked through the ingredients, I realized that this is NOT really true cornbread. It will create a similar looking dish, but is not the real deal if you now what I mean.

I imagine this will produce a moist, almost cakey texture, it reminds me a lot of the jiffy corn souffle recipe.
