Notes: This is not the traditional southern corn bread since sugar is added. But I prefer the slight sweetness. It is best to bake in a cast iron skillet so you get a nice crust on the bottom and edges. You can also make the following variations below.
Mexican Cornbread
Add 1/3 cup chopped green onions (both green and white parts), 3 Tbs. fresh jalapeno peppers (seeded and minced) and 2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese to the batter. Prior to baking, sprinkle the top of the batter with 1/2 cup of shredded cheese and 3 Tbs. chopped green onions.
Italian Cornbread
Add 1/2 cup coarsely chopped sun-dried tomatoes (drained, 1 Tbs. chopped fresh basil and 1 Tbs. chopped fresh oregano to the batter.
