Printed and gonna try tonight! Most of the cornbread recipies are basically the same, but this is tweaked a bit.

Thanks Joe!

Growing up in Texas, cornbread was a staple and I loved my Aunt Margaret's best. Around my house now, it can be more like a meal sometimes. I love good old plain cornbread sometimes like Joe's above but I also like my husbands. He adds canned crème corn, fresh bacon bits, chopped fresh jalapenos, onions etc... Not always all at once mind you but in variation, depending on what he made it to go with. Lots of time we use the box mix just because its easier so thanks for the easy mix above. Can you believe he even used the basic recipe like above to make a pineapple upside down cake. It was awesome for a BBQ we had that weekend! Thanks for sharing Joe; I always pass your recipes to Larry!! He like you loves to cook and I whole heartedly benefit. Nothing better than a twist to one of life's comfort foods!

ohhhhh Brenda what a treat. I never thought of putting creamed corn into corn bread, I bet it is delicious. I'm going to have to try that...

And Joe thanks for the Recipe :)

Thanks for the comments. There is a number of things that can be put in corn bread. I have seen where some have put in cheese, green onions, corn, peppers etc. Its all up to what the person wants to put in their corn bread.

Jessie I think this recipe is going to be the buttermilk that makes it. I also think you guys want more sugar if that is the case put it in. Like I have said before a recipe is a guide line, make the changes to what you want and how they work for you.
