Enjoy this Skillet Honey Cornbread with beans, barbecue, soup, stew and beyond #cornbread #honeycornbread #cornbreadrecipes #breadrecipes #southernfood #southernrecipes #castironcooking #skilletcornbread #dinnerideas #dinner
A piece of this slightly sweet honey infused Skillet Honey Cornbread is the perfect accompaniment to most any meal.  Cornbread goes with so many Southern dishes and like biscuits it’s considered a favorite house bread of the South. Serve it piping hot fresh from the oven with a pat of sweet cream butter. It’s like a bite of heaven.

Skillet Honey Cornbread

My Mom and Gramma’s made cornbread practically everyday, it was standard practice. We particularly enjoy this sweeter cornbread with spicy dishes or a savory bowl of vegetable beef soup.  Served at Southern tables for eons, you just can’t go wrong with a pan of hot cornbread to accompany a bowl of pinto beans, green beans and potatoes, or scooped and fried in a hot cast iron skillet to make individual griddle cakes.
No matter the occasion, this skillet honey cornbread is simply spectacular. Using honey in the batter gives it an slightly delicate texture. It’s a true taste of the South in your mouth.

    Your dressing calls for 6 cups of cornbread. Does this recipe make 6 cups?

    Thanks

    If you have self-rising flour and self-rising cornmeal just omit the baking powder.
