You many not think of cornbread as comfort food but it is for me. The term “comfort food” means food that provides consolation or a feeling or well-being, typically any with a high sugar or other carbohydrate content and associated with childhood or home cooking.
That’s exactly what cornbread does for me. Remind me of my childhood. Growing up in a household where the mom is from Oklahoma and the dad is from Arkansas I ate a lot of beans, fried potatoes and cornbread. To this day it’s still my favorite meal. Just simple home cooking!
This cornbread is made from scratch (hence the title). No boxed cornbread for this girl! Add cornbread to a layered salad for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner. Click here to find out how—->>>>LAYERED CORN BREAD SALAD
A great way to serve stew or chili at a Western themed party! Preheat oven to 350°. Make the cornbread batter, put stew or chili into a 16 ounce wide mouth mason jar top with 1/2 cup of prepared cornbread batter. Place jars on a cookie sheet. Bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
