Hi All,

Does anyone have a recipe for cornbread that is sweet? I know the traditional way is not sweet at all, but we are used too jiffy mix and trader joes mixes, they are yummy but we want to make our oun. My husband and all my family like it sweet for that matter. Even the bakeover isnt sweet enough except for the fruit. So we add more sugar to the recipe. But it still isnt like jiffy or trader joes. And Jiffy is not that healthy it is one of the gmo foods. Trader joes is healthy but why cant I make cornbread like them? I want to make it for ThanksGiving.
Thanks, Faith

I use the recipe off of the Quaker Yellow Corn Meal box, the "Easy Recipe". Except I use brown sugar instead of white sugar. It tastes so much better and sweeter. It does look a bit odd in color but it tastes great!

I use the recipe off the cornmeal bag but add just a bit of extra sugar and about a tbs. of real maple syrup to the mix before I bake.

Faith,

I have one at home, so I'll try to remember to post it to you tonight.

I just have to tell you, when my kids were small and we'd be driving on Rte 9D to go to the South Hills or Galleria Mall (sorry guys - sometimes I go to malls!!), my one daughter would always wait til we got to Wappingers and then ask, "Where are we?" and my other daughter and I would yell, "Wappingers Falls!". I know - you had to be there - but it became a traditon (albeit a goofy one).

Anyway - I'll get my recipe out to you tonight. It's pretty yummy.

I use those jiffy mixes and I add a couple tablespoons of sugar, it's the kids favorite cornbread, but don't tell anyone my secret! LOL

Hey Liz, Thank you I will check it out when I go shopping again.

Hey Julie, Thank you, The maple syrup sounds great, I will put that in as well when I find a recipe I like.

HeyDebbie, How long ago did you live here? It is a zoo now. When I was little wappingers falls was the boondocks. If you are ever in the area you all come on over for a visit, ya hear. I would love any recipes you have.

Hey Sue, Thank you too. I like the sweetness of the jiffy mix but its the gmo I want to get away from and I really want to make one from scratch. But all the southern recipes aren't sweet enough.

Hey Tasha, Thank you I would love the recipe! I LOVE cornbread.
Thank you guys, Faith

This one sounds really sweet (and not real healthy) but I'll bet it tastes great and has a nice texture..

Corn Bread

1 (9 oz.) box Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
1 (9 oz.) box Jiffy Yellow Cake Mix

Prepare each box according to package directions and gently fold together.
Pour into a greased 9 x 13 pan. Bake according to box directions for the yellow cake mix.|

Okie Doke, here is mine....(Faith I am still sending it to you hard copy along with a few others...)

I double the following and make a cake pan full. It generally gets all eaten up and it sweet and fluffy and yummy. Grace's favorite breakfast!

Oven 425 degrees

1 Cup all purpose unbleached flour
1 Cup cornmeal
4-6 TBS raw sugar
1 TBS baking powder
1/2 tsp sea salt
2 beaten eggs
1 Cup milk
1/4 Cup unsalted melted butter

Grease your pan of choice on bottom and sides. Stir together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt. Make a well in the middle and set aside.
in a separate bowl, combine the eggs, milk and melted butter. Add the egg mixture all at once into the well of the dry mixture. stir it all until just moist.
Spoon your batter into your prepared pan of choice. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a tooth pick comes out clean from the center. (I add on about 15 minutes for the doubled recipe, or until the toothpicj is clean.) Serve it with butter and karo or maple syrup for a tasty breakfast or with butter as a side to your chili!!

ENJOY!

This is the only one I make anymore. Very good! Awesome with chili, or for breakfast the next morning with maple syrup and butter.

Molasses Corn Bread

1 c. cornmeal
1 c. unbleached all-purpose flour
1/4 c. whole wheat flour
1/4 c. non-fat dry milk (optional)
2 t. baking soda
2 t. salt
3 eggs
2 T. blackstrap molasses
1/3 c. honey
2 c. buttermilk or sour milk

Preheat oven to 350. Mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and add the molasses, honey, and buttermilk. Add this to the dry ingredients and stir just to combine. Pour into a greased 9 inch round cake pan or iron skillet. Bake around 40 minutes.

Hi Faith,

I moved to Idaho 7 years ago, but I was back for a visit this past summer. I'd love to see where you live when I come back some time. Here's my recipe. Sorry it took so long.

Golden Sweet Cornbread

1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup yellow cornmeal
2/3 white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon and 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 egg
1 cup milk
1/3 cup vegetable oil

Directions:

1) Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray or lightly grease a 9 inch round cake pan.
2) In a large bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, salt, and baking powder. Stir in egg, milk, and vegetable oil until well combined.
Pour batter into prepared pan.
3) Bake in preheated oven for 20 - 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.

I use the typical boxed cornbread mixes but add a drizzle or two of honey directly into the batter

Just wanted to add my fav cornbread trick. I add about 2 tablespoons mayonnaise (not salad dressing stuff, use real mayonnaise!) to the mixture. It makes it super moist!
