Warm homemade cornbread is delicious eaten on its own, with a pat of butter, crumbled over chili, or as a Thanksgiving side dish! The ten basic ingredients are usually on hand, so easy to combine and simply baked in either a cake pan, muffin tins or an iron skillet until golden in color. In a very short time, a lovely golden yellow coarsely textured cake-like cornbread with hints of vanilla is ready to be devoured right out of the oven, and highly recommended.
