Very easy cornbread. If you have a smaller oven you may find that 15 minutes is adequate baking time. -
This was very easy to make. It was tender and crumbly - a bit on the dry side. Would consider it an average cornbread recipe.

I have been a Central Illinois resident all my life.
My hobbies include fishing with my husband, reading, counted cross stitch, and of course, cooking (especially baking)!
I currently work in an office, behind a desk, pushing paper. My dream would be to open my own bakery.
Spending time in the kitchen is very relaxing to me, and it keeps me connected to my domestic side!
