Southern Cornbread

"A classic old-fashioned Southern cornbread recipe -- just like Grandma made it! With crisp edges from a cast iron skillet, and a tangy, buttery flavor (no sugar!), this easy side dish works well for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Add a pat of butter, a drizzle of honey, or a dollop of apple butter, and pair it with chili, fried chicken, fried fish, pork chops, or beans and greens. It's a 5-ingredient Southern staple! My love for cornbread runs deep, and I'm not too particular when it comes to the style! While a sweet, cake-like northern cornbread recipe has its place on my table (it's definitely my kids' preference), this classic southern cornbread recipe will always have my heart. Nothing quite says "comfort" like a skillet of warm cornbread, only made better with a drizzle of honey or a slathering of extra butter and apple butter. Perfect for soaking up chili, gravy, or anything else that might be lingering on your plate..."
