Holiday Cornbread Recipe

IMG_7714.jpeg

The holidays are right around the corner and cornbread is a must for a lot of families. There are lots of different ways to make it and you can always buy the pre-made box kind (hey I've done that for years and it was yummy). This cornbread is delicious with some honey and jam or as is with some milk. Believe it or not, growing up we were not raised on cornbread because both my parents came from Romania but I love adding American traditions to my holiday table. So if you want to make you own Holiday Cornbread that is ridiculously easy, then follow the step by step guide below or watch the video tutorial here:

Allow your cornbread to cool. I cut the edges but you don't have to do this. Then go ahead a cut your cornbread into pieces.

Enjoy!
