Unlike other reviews, I did not find this to be dry or crumbly. It's exactly the way it should be. I ran out of sugar so I added a couple tablespoons of honey and used canola oil in place of shortening. It's a convenient recipe as well, ingredients usually on hand. Thanks!

This recipe is Awesome! The corn bread turnded out just perfect! Nice and moist, but not too moist and very tasty. The only thing that I changed, like everyone else, is I mix 3/4 cups of sugar instead of the 1/2.

I made this recipe, as is, with cornmeal fresh from the mill. I also used canola as the "shortening." It was rated "heavenly" by the family and my daughter, who's a great cook from TN, said it was the best she ever ate and tasted morelike a desert cake. Yummmmmmmm!!!

Out of the ingredients for our favorite corn bread and not wanting to make a trip to the store, I used this recipe. Was good enough that I decided to make it again with a few minor adjustments... I cut the salt to 1/4 teaspoon as I used butter in place of the shortening. Also I increased the milk by 1/4 of a cup and let the milk soak with the corn meal for about 10 minutes which made for a very moist bread. I'll definitely be making this again.

Good basic recipe though its not quite sweet enough. I used 1/4 cup honey instead of sugar & will try 1/3 cup next time. I also used butter instead of shorting cause it's what I had laying around. Last I added some defrosted frozen corn. Came out well but like I said, it needs more sweetner.

An easy, basic recipe that's delicious. I used 1/4 of canola oil rather than shortening because that's what was on hand. Very tasty.

A good, basic recipe for cornbread. Not too sweet, not too dry. Very easy to make. I used melted butter instead of shortening - yummy!

I used butter for the fat & used a glass pan w/non-stick spray. it baked up with a nice crispy crust - good stuff! I'll add a little extra sugar next time, but otherwise the taste & consistency was just what I was looking for.

Really good! Just the right taste and consistency, and really easy to make. The only change I made was using butter instead of shortening. Next time I might use canola oil... and there will definitely be a next time!

This recipe was soooo good! I actually forgot to add the shortening (was going to have to substitute margarine anyway) and it still came out tender and held together, as opposed to crumbling on me when I tried to serve it. I will be saving this one!

Delicioso!!! I've been looking for a great corn bread recipe and this one is terrific. My husband hasn't tasted it yet but something will seriously be wrong with him if he doesn't like it.
