Sourdough Honey Cornbread

Today I wanted to share this delicious Sourdough Honey Cornbread mix that I came up with.  I usually make my Jalapeno Cornbread but wanted a change and something a bit sweeter.  I added a bit of honey and some sweet cream corn.  It really turned out great, so I wanted to share the recipe here on my blog.

I have always used Jiffy Cornbread mix whenever I make cornbread instead of the bag cornmeal mix.  I love how all of the leavening ingredients are already included in the mix for you.  I also used a well-fed sourdough starter and canned cream of corn additional sweetness with the honey.  I use as much as possible local home-grown honey from the area where I live as you can't beat the taste compared to commercially store bought.  However, in a pinch I have used store bought and the cornbread tasted just as good. 

 Ingredients

1 Box of Jiffy Cornbread Mix

1 room temperature egg

1/3 cup of buttermilk

1/3 cup canned cream of corn

2 tbs butter

2 tablespoons of honey

1/4 cup fed sourdough starter

How to Make Sourdough Honey Cornbread

Place an 8-inch cast iron skillet in the oven with the two tablespoons of butter until oven reaches 425 degrees.

Mix all the other ingredients in a bowl until well combined.

Add the mixture to the heated butter and cook for 25 minutes and the top of the cornbread is golden brown and cooked throughout.  Check with a toothpick to make sure completely done on the inside.

Happy Baking!
