I like to have a collection of cornbread recipes. Some recipes are basic, and some are sweet, and some have a spicy ingredient like jalapenos. I change up the recipes, depending on what my main dish is. I find that some cornbreads are bland. I can't wait to try this. It looks easy and my family will enjoy it

Authentic Southern cornbread does not include sugar.

Adding or not adding sugar is a matter of taste not locality.

It'd be better if you used buttermilk. Danielle 1995 just wanted to see her fake name in print.

This recipe was so gross, horrible & a waste of ingredients, it was good at all & I wouldn't reccommend this recipe to any 1

Other than gross and horrible, could you specify what makes it so? Appears to be a pretty standard recipe for cornbread, so wherein does the problem lie?
