Cornbread HomeiraStyle
HomeiraStyle Recipe

My husband loves corn in every form… on the cub, soufflé, chowder, muffin, salad. I nearly always include cornbread as part of my Thanksgiving spread. Too often, cornbread is dry and bland with little flavor and unappealing texture. I add buttermilk and cream corn to create a very moist, flavorful and tender crumb. Finishing it with sautéed corn kernels, a touch of honey and ghee takes this recipe over the top.
