I have a self-rising cornflour mix, can I still use that?

I haven't tried it that way but it's worth a try and if it doesn't work out perfectly crumble it up and make a cornmeal stuffing/dressing... *YUM*

Wow, this turned out fantastic!  The cornbread I've made in the past has always turned out a little bit dry.  This was perfectly crispy and golden on the outside, and light and moist on the inside.  Soooo good!  I served it with southern-fried tofu, spinach, and black-eyed peas.  Thanks for the recipe!

I'm glad it turned out well for you. Now all you need is a glass of sweet tea to complete your meal.

This made me eat so much my stomach hurt! Oh man.... I've never made cornbread before and this came out perfectly! And just in case anyone is like me and doesn't have any dry egg replacer on hand but does have flax seeds in excess: two tablespoons of flax seeds, ground up in a blender, will work perfectly in this.

seriously...this was amazing. soooo good!

I had tried brocili cornbread once before I was vegan, and am very excited to make it with this recipe.

You mention a "skillet".  What kind and what size  skillet do I need?   Do you mean an iron skillet?  Does it have to be well-seasoned?  I'd have to buy one to try this recipe.  Will the recipe work in a regular baking pan?

By skillet I did mean a cast-iron skillet about a 10 inch/ average sized one. You don't really need one but it does give it a wonderful crust. I also make this recipe into corn muffins and muffin squares/blocks so just adjust the cooking time accordingly.

This cornbread recipe was totally yummy!  Love love love the sweetness of the sugar... nice contrast to the spicy veg chili I made.  Wee!  Thanks for the post!

what is AP flour?
I know it must be obvious since no one else asked...well, I am just going to use unbleached and see what happens!

[little2ant]

oh, AND is the sugar a wet or dry ingredient, AND is it mixed in or all of it sprinkled on?

little2ant
AP=All Purpose flour (i think)
i added the sugar with the dry ingredients and mixed it all in, just a little dusting on top

Yup All Purpose flour

oh, AND is the sugar a wet or dry ingredient, AND is it mixed in or all of it sprinkled on?

Even though sugar is technically considered a wet ingredient I put all of it in with the dry and sprinkle a little extra on top.

Good Luck I hope it turns out

if you are looking for a cornbread recipe, STOP looking! This is the BEST cornbread I have ever had! I have also rekindled my love for the cast iron skillet, and will be using it more often.

I followed the directions exactly and it came out perfectly!



Thank you!!!!!! 

drrrrrr........AP= all purpose! Don't I feel silly!
