I love this fb page! I won’t be in the kitchen much this weekend but will be next week! Can hardly wait to taste this, yum! Thanks so much!
Can’t wait to try the cornbread. MMMmm.
i squirted some Sriracha on the top of it in a zigzag pattern. …. cute and tastes good.
Did you take a picture? We love seeing your creations.
Wheh do you add the starter, step #2 or #4?
Hi Donna
You add the starter in step 2. Enjoy!
I made this bread tonight and had a difficult time with it. At 25 minutes, it was still soupy. Then I baked at 425 for another 15 minutes. It was still doughy in the middle and very heavy. HAs anyone else had difficulty with this recipe? Was it supposed to make (2) 8 x 8 pans?
Hi Kate,
So sorry to hear of your problem with this recipe. We have good results as well as others baking it. Did you make any changes to the recipe?
I wonder if it is the type of cornemeal I used. I have some that is a more rustic grind. I think I will try soaking the cornmeal with the milk overnight next try.
Yes, maybe that is it! Let us know how it turns out! Happy Baking.
I had the same problem…I was so excited because I have never had cornbread that wasn’t from the box. Maybe it’s an altitude problem?
