EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Not all cornmeal is yellow! It can also be white or blue, depending on the type of corn it came from.

To ensure recipe success if using a vegetable oil spread, use a spread with at least 65% vegetable oil.

Rise to the occasion! If using self-rising flour, there is no need to add baking powder and salt.

If you prefer corn muffins, grease just the bottoms of 12 regular-size muffin cups, or place paper baking cups in muffin cups. Fill about 3/4 full with batter.

Good, old-fashioned corn bread! I've made this recipe about 10 times now. Add a little extra butter and about 1/4 extra milk so it's not dry. I also bake it 25 degrees cooler for 25-30 minutes.

Use Bisquick (double the amount as flour) add an additional egg, tablespoon of vanilla and 1/4 cup of sugar and you have the Cajun definition of Southern Sweet Cornbread. Not especially healthy but the taste is to die for. Ma chere it is toooooo good.
