EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

No buttermilk in your refrigerator? No problem! Replace buttermilk by adding 1 tablespoon lemon juice or white vinegar to a measuring cup and filling with milk to the 1-cup line; let stand for 5 minutes.

Use leftover cornbread as a base for Savory Southern Shortcake. Top corn bread wedge with a saucy sauté of black-eyed peas and collard greens.

This is an awesome recipe! I love to make it in my cast iron skillet. But I also 1/2ed the recipe and it made 6 perfect cornbread muffins. It is a very quick and easy recipe that anyone can use. It even works GREAT at 7200 ft altitude. And my husband LOVES this recipe, too!
