This recipe was Okay. Not bad, not delicious. It was a bit too dry and not sweet enough. The recipe on the cornmeal is almost identical, except there is more flour and less cornmeal than this recipe. I couldn't imagine it being that much more high in calories or fat. I think I will try that next time instead.02/22/07

This is a good basic recipe for corn bread, but it is missing something. I will make it again, but will likely add some honey and perhaps a bit more salt and some corn. My husband did not care for it as is, but I did enjoy it. I would not make this for special occasions, necessarily, but it was great as a side to our chili dinner.01/22/06
