  1. This is a delicious traditional cornbread. It is not crumbly or sweet. I got about 4 servings from this recipe. I did not have buttermilk on hand, so I put a tsp. of lemon juice in 1 cup of milk and it worked just fine. Thanks for this one.
     
  2. This is the best cornbread recipe I've tried (and I've made lots of mediocre cornbread). It came out with a wonderful crispy crust but was nice and tender inside. I like the fact that it had no sugar or honey, as I do not like sweet cornbread. I highly recommend this recipe.
     
  3. My mom's best friend always made buttermilk cornbread but mom's was made with sweet milk. I loved the buttermilk on so I had to try this. I was not disappointed. I made it in a iron skillet that is divided into 8 slices. *can't think of the name of it* It made exactly that amount and was nice and crunchy on the outside and moist and tender inside. Thanks for the perfect cornbread recipe!
     
  4. This is a very good recipe! It is not crumbly or sweet! So simple to make and delicious too!
     
  5. This was delicious! It took less than the twenty minutes in our oven. Very good corn bread with chili!!

  1. this is by far the best cornbread our family has ever had. i'm so happy to finally find a recipe that isn't dry. i didn't have the buttermilk or applesauce so i substituted sour cream mixed with milk for both. next time i will use the applesauce and add blueberries for a nice breakfast cake. thank you!!!
