Yummy in my tummy! I have made this twice in the last week. The first time I made it as the recipe is written and it was good. The second time I made it I followed one of the reviewers advice and that was to add creamed corn and that made it fantastic! Here is what I did different; I added 1 entire can of creamed corn to the egg, milk, butter and sour cream, but instead of using an entire cup of sour cream I cut it down to 1/4 cup. This makes the cornbread increadibly moist. The recipe truly is good as is, but I thought that the creamed corn made it outstanding. Thank you for the delicious recipe, Virginia Hanker!

Best corn bread ever! I doubled the recipe, but only used 1 c sour cream and added a can of creamed corn. YUM! I also used more sugar as suggested by others. Thanks!

This is the BEST cornbread I have ever had! It is my new go-to recipe for traditional (yet GREAT!!) cornbread. Cornbread is often overlooked in a menu as a whole. It is easy to make merely average cornbread and get away with it, because it is not the feature dish of the meal. I suggest spending a couple extra minutes and putting some TLC into your cornbread... with this recipe! The texture is what sets this recipe apart from others I have tried. It is fluffy, while at the same time thick, and incredibly moist. Additionally, the recipe was quick and easy. If you want excellent cornbread, you have to try this recipe!
