A fantastic cornbread with a lovely flavor and texture. Followed the recipe to the letter, and beat the mix for 5 minutes before baking. Highly recommended, and a great basic bread amendable to variations.

I'll never buy that boxed garbage corn muffin/bread mix again. This is PHENOMENAL. I had some fine-ground cornmeal on hand and was looking for a recipe to use some of it up in, and I was shocked at the difference between this and the store-bought mix. This recipe made THE BEST cornbread I've ever had.

I made this recipe exactly as written and beat the batter for 10+ minutes. I didn't care for this recipe at all. The cornbread was very dense after cooked and did not have enough corn flavor.

This was a good recipe, but nothing that I was overwhelmingly pleased with. If you're looking for a good go-to recipe for cornbread, this would be one to keep on-hand. Be advised, though, that it doesn't keep well. Twenty-four hours after baking it the bread was already inedible.

This is a great basic recipe but it makes too much for my small family so I cut the recipe in half and used my 8" cast iron skillet to bake. A more traditional method of baking, make sure you preheat your skillet as you are heating up your oven, I used vegetable shortening just before putting in the batter. When it sizzles, you know it's gonna be good! I also reduced the sugar just a bit and instead of adding vegetable oil to the batter, I added melted butter. C'mon - this is cornbread! Used whipped organic butter with honey when serving. Family loves this with good old Tuna Noodle Casserole.

I made this recipe for the first time following the ingredients exact and it turned out perfect and delicious! The only thing I did different was use a cast iron skillet to cook the bread in and it turned out awesome. This sweet, cornbread recipe is a keeper.

This was my first time making the bread. I made it exactly as the recipe said and it came out great. I wasn't sure at first about the cornmeal mixture (milk + cornmeal) but it turned out great. I am going to try another poster's suggestion of 1/2 white sugar & 1/2 brown sugar the next time. All in all my husband loved it!!!!

This corn bread was not very good! I took everyones advice and switched the flour and cornrnmeal amounts. It did not work for me. I soaked the cornmeal as directed. The bread came out flat and dry.

Great recipe! I used 1/3c dark brown sugar (didn't have light) and 1/3c white sugar as suggested by others. The corn bread was so delicious, and a rich egg yolk color. It did take a good 40+ minutes to bake though-which I'll plan for next time.

Excellent cornbread recipe! I took the advice of another rater and did half light brown sugar, half white sugar and it came out wonderfully! Everyone went back for seconds!

This was a VERY dense bread. I beat it for the full 5 minutes that was recommended, but still really wet and dense. More like a pound cake than a corn bread.

Really good! Very sweet and moist. I didn't have yellow cornmeal on hand, so I used white cornmeal. I split the batter - one to include pieces of corn and the other to be just as written. I actually liked it better without the corn pieces. I missed the cornmeal texture a little bit, but the taste of sweet corn was there. I wouldn't change a thing. Next time, I will try it with the yellow cornmeal.

OH MY!!! This is DELICIOUS...I've been looking for a cornbread recipe for years and I've found it. After taking it out of the oven I slathered Honey Butter (from this website) and it not only made it taste AMAZING but it gave the golden corn bread a beautiful glaze! WOW AMAZING =) THANK YOU

I followed the alterations that JWGASA suggested at it turned out perfect!!! Especially with the melted butter and honey. A good way to put a little more flavour into the corbread is to add a small pinch of paprika. I also found that covering the grease in the pan with bread crumbs makes the crust crispier.

This is excellent cornbread - SO moist and full of flavor. I'm going to reduce the sugar to about 1/3 cup next time. We like to top ours with butter & brown sugar, so the cornbread itself doesn't need to be very sweet.

This is my favorite corn bread recipe. I've been making it for about 4 years now and decided it was time to rate it. Since there are only 2 of us, I cut the recipe to 1/3 and bake it in my small cast iron skillet which makes a nice crust on the bottom no matter what recipe you use, but this one is Excellent!
