The Best Cast Iron Skillet Cornbread Recipe

I have tried many cornbread recipes and this is by far the best. It is moist and buttery and has just a hint of sweetness. Baking cornbread in a cast iron skillet is definitely the way to go. We usually serve this cornbread with soup or chili, but it is great along side so many things.
I found the original recipe here: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alexandra-guarnaschelli/cast-iron-skillet-corn-bread-recipe.html
It is really good with Slow Cooker Creamy Chicken Chili: http://youtu.be/2ByO7nas99U

    I would love to try this GF. Though I'm not Celiac, I break out whenever I ingest gluten, so I try to avoid it completely. I had Chipotle, barbacoa bowl, on Monday and broke out bad. It's a learning process. :(

    Lemon juice or plain white vinegar works just as well.

    Hey Jen, my family loves this recipe!  Like you, I have to eat gluten-free (I have Celiac).  Just curious if you have tried making a GF version of this yet, and if so, what adjustments have you made?  Thanks! :)

    Add a half a can or a whole  14.5 oz can of Petite Diced Tomato with Green Chilies and set it off! Delmonte all natural and most store brands sell the Petite Diced tomatoes or make your own. Girl its the bomb!

    Thanks for sharing this. It looks super yummy, and I can't wait to try it! Oh, and I am addicted to your red beans and andouille sausage recipe, and cornbread would be good with it too! I'm newly expecting again and it is hitting the spot like crazy.:-) Tricia

    I used almost this exact recipe . I made three batches for super bowl. A quarter cup of honey makes it stay moist. Wonderful cooking with cast iron. Oh please do not cut in a coated cast iron pan .Hate to see scratches on such a lovely pan . 🙂
