    Perfect Southern cornbread recipe. I love how fluffy it bakes up. Super simple to throw together and everyone loved it.

    This was a very tasty recipe. The only downside is that the cornbread tastes very 'eggy'. 2 eggs is too much for such a small amount of cornbread. Whilst it was a very good recipe, it smelled and tasted too much like egg for me. xx. I'd suggest omitting an egg and adding 1 cup of cornmeal as opposed to .75 of a cup.

    Figured I wasn't a fan, I just thought southern cornbread was supposed to be dry and bland... but my husband and family LOVED it anyway. The most moist and flavorful cornbread I have ever tasted! I will only be making this recipe from now on.

    Living outside of Texas it is very difficult finding a cornbread mix that does not contain sugar. I usually order my CornKits online, but after making this cornbread last year for my dressing, I am hooked. It was awesome and tasted just like home!!

    Yes, it was easy, & yes it was light. HOWEVER, I did not like this recipe - It was way too light in texture, almost like a yellow cake, and it had very little if any taste to it. I like my cornbread to have texture & a good cornmeal taste. There just wasn't any of either here. There are a lot better recipes out there in my opinion.

    I have tried so many recipes for cornbread. This is simple to make and holds together well. The texture and flavor are perfect. No more searching for cornbread recipes. I like mine without sugar which is another plus.

    Made this for Michael Symon's cornbread stuffing for (to die for. After reading the reviews, I added a little sugar and some sage. When it came out of the oven, it was quite tasty. If I was just going to eat it just as the cornbread, I would have added some honey. But it was perfection for the cornbread stuffing as the stuffing was savory and the cornbread did not need to be sweet. But Cat Cora contributed to my Iron Chef Thanksgiving. Present were, Bobby Flay (Turkey, Mac & Cheese Carbonara, and Brussel Sprouts with Vanilla-Pecan Butter and Pomegranate Molasses, Michael Symon (the stuffing. We also invited Emeril for dessert with his Bourbon Whiskey Bread Pudding. I had the best Thanksgiving dinner I have ever made. Thanks for sharing Cat.

    Easy to make and cooked nicely...but, I found it very blah. Not much flavor at all. Next time I think I'll add some kernals of corn and a little sugar.
