Tips & Suggestions

Preheat the oven early because the cornbread batter mixes up quickly. 

Don’t forget togrease the 9x13 baking pan or make cornbread muffins. 

Sift or use a whisk to break up the clumpy dry box mix to prevent a lumpy batter. 

Don’t overmix the batter, mix until combined for tender and fluffy results. 

If you have the time after mixing the batter let it rest for 20 minutes. This allows the cornmeal to absorb the liquid and soften up. 

Over baking the cornbread will make it very dry, keep an eye on the bake time.
