Golden Sweet Cornbread
I'm giving this 5 stars because it has wonderful flavor and texture, and although my first attempt did not come out perfectly, it was because of what I did to it. First off, I used agave nectar (¼ c) instead of sugar; also used sifted bread flour instead of regular white flour (both because of dietary restrictions). In addition I cut the baking powder to 2t per some reviews. The only problem I had was that it didn't rise as tall as I would have expected, and that may have been because of the bread flour. Anyway, this recipe is a definite keeper! I will be making this again, using the full amount of baking powder.
I have made this again, this time substituting ½ cup honey mesquite flour for ¼ cup of the cornmeal and ¼ cup of the flour. That makes a great recipe even better. The mesquite adds sweetness to the cornbread so ? cup of sugar was plenty. If you want mesquite flour you can find it online - it's a bit expensive, but worth it (I cheat - we have 2 honey mesquite trees and I make my own flour).
