Buttermilk Cornbread

As promised, here it is, ladies and gentlemen.  The best cornbread you’ll ever sink your teeth into.  Okay, well, I hope so.  I know those are high expectations, but for me, it’s the real deal.  And I think my daughter agrees.  It’s all she’s asked for since we made it.  Well, and Cheerios.   She is 2 after all.

This recipe is simple to put together too, and you can do it all in one saucepan.  The Phoenix loved it broken into pieces and used as a topping for his Chicken and Black Bean Chili.  I prefer it warm, topped with butter and honey.  Oh wow, my mouth is watering now…

Seriously, it is.  Too bad we finished the rest of it tonight with dinner.  In the words of my daughter, “What a bummer.”

“Make more, Mommy, make more!”  (I love it when she says that.)
