Equipment You May Need
Notes
- Using room temperature ingredients when you can (like eggs and sour cream) will help your cornbread cook evenly and they are easier to blend with the other ingredients.
- Total cooking time varies based on your oven and the type of baking dish you use. Check doneness with a toothpick when the top is golden-brown and you suspect it is ready.
- If the center of your cornbread is not baked but the top is starting to get too dark, just cover it with foil for the remaining time.
