ISO: Cornbread

[Aline]

I've never made cornbread. We really enjoy the cornbread that they serve at Montana's. It tastes a little sweet and lemony. My daughter keeps asking me to make some.

Does anyone have a recipe that they've actually made and liked? I've checked out other sites but I want a recipe that someone likes to make.

Thanks!

Thanks, looking forward to the recipes.

FYI, this cornbread doesn't have any corn niblets in it. It's more of a dessert cornbread - sweet and lemony!

Aline,
I have used the Boston Market Clone recipe for cornbread with success. If you want a lemony flavor, try adding some lemon extract. The cornbread has a sweeter taste than "normal" cornbread.

Here is the recipe I used:

Boston Market Cornbread (clone)
1 box Jiffy Mix Cornbread Mix
1 box Jiffy Mix Yellow Cake Mix
OR
2 boxes Jiffy Mix Cornbread Mix
1 box regular yellow cake mix

Mix both boxes according to directions and combine the batter. I generally use a large mix bowl and add both boxes together. I add the other ingredients all at once. If you have only boxes of jiffy mix, use a brownie size 8-inch square baking pan. If you use a box of regular cake mix, use a 9 x 13-inch pan.

Bake at 350 degrees F until done. This takes about 30 minutes. Test for doneness.

Servings: 4

If you don't have Jiffy mixes then just make a regular cornbread mix and mix with a regular yellow cake mix and add the flavoring.

Hope you enjoy
Pat
