ALBERS BEST CORNBREAD



Albers Best Cornbread image

This is a recipe I got from the Alber's brand cornmeal box a number of years ago. It's my favorite cornbread recipe. It's sweet, but not too sweet. They've since changed the recipe on their box and I'm grateful I kept the old one...while the new isn't bad, it's really sweet...it tastes like corn-flavored cake. This is a happy medium. Best served hot with lots of butter (imo), but good cold, also. I'm posting this here for safe-keeping. Note: You can measure out and mix the dry ingredients together and keep in in a tightly closed container for those times when you need to whip up a quick batch of cornbread. For a killer crust on the cornbread, use a cast-iron skillet.

CORN GRITS CORNBREAD



Corn Grits Cornbread image

This cornbread has a really nice texture. I started making it this way when I got some hand-me-down coarse-ground cornmeal. I think it was Bob's Red Mill brand and my grocery store had it once, but then I couldn't find it for a while. Now they carry Bob's Red Mill "Corn Grits or Polenta". I think it's the same thing.
