I take a heaping Tbsp out of the Jiffy mix and add 1 Tbsp flour (S.R. is available).  Either works!

 

Still same taste, not so crumbly!

 

 


 Thanks for that tip!  I usually make my cornbread from scratch but there is a Jiffy in the pantry for some reason!  I would like to 'fix' it, LOL

 

and I do have Self Rising flour....

 

Thanks!

I know some of you don't like sweet....but we have come to love this recipe....don't taste sweet to us but it might to others.

 

Blueberry Buttermilk Cornbread with HONEY

 

Cornbread

  • 1 1/4 cups flour
  • 1 1/4 cups cornmeal
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/4 cups buttermilk, at room temperature
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 1 cup blueberries

Blueberry Topping

  • 1 1/2 cups blueberries
  • pinch of salt
  • 2 to 3 Tbsp honey (to taste)
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp water
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F and grease a seasoned 10-inch cast iron skillet (or cake pan). Whisk together flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl; make a well in the center of the mixture. Combine buttermilk, eggs, brown sugar, and honey in a medium bowl; add to flour mixture and fold in until almost combined. Fold in melted butter and blueberries just until combined.
  2. Pour batter into prepared pan and smooth top with an offset spatula. Bake for 19 to 20 minutes, until golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in skillet on a wire rack for 10 minutes; use a thin spatula to loosen cornbread from skillet before serving.
  3. For the blueberry topping, combine blueberries, salt, and honey in a saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. When mixture begins to bubble, reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Whisk together cornstarch and water in a small bowl; add to fruit mixture and continue cooking until thickened, 1 or 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving.

Store leftover cornbread at room temperature and warm before serving. Store leftover blueberry topping in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 1 week.

@SurferWife 

 

I know you are living in paradise....but was wondering if you order that White Lily or if it is carried in your stores?

 

 

Amz wants $12 a bag!!!!

 

Walmart shows it as $2.78 but it isn't carried at the 12 stores around me.

 

Wegman's doesn't carry it either!

If you have dense cornbread, it sounds like the baking powder in what you used was dead.

If you keep ingredients on hand, I'd put them in the freezer.

That looks SO good, but Amz is showing that brand as $8.39 for 32 oz!!!!

 

Do you pay that much for Martha White or is Amz ripping off as usual?

 

I can get 32oz of Indian Head White Corn Meal at Wegman's for $1.59 !!


@RespectLife  No, the mix is $1.58 at Walmart. LOL

Your pictures have made my hungry and now I have to make some cornbread for our chili tonight. I usually use Pioneer Woman's skillet cornbread recipe, but I like all versions of cornbread recipes. Would rather have it with honey butter than dessert. Then the next day, crumbled into a glass of buttermilk with a little sugar.. Hope that does not gross too many out. Just an "old timey" thing to do my first husband taught me.

Nomar, that's the way I like cornbread too, my mom always liked  cornbread with buttermilk. My brother likes his with strawberries.  Let me know how you liked the cornbread..
