Moist and  fluffy cornbread at it’s finest! Here is my recipe for Grandmas Southern Cornbread. It’s super easy to make, and takes very little time. For this cornbread I used a self rising buttermilk cornmeal mix. Therefore, I didn’t have to add any rising agent, nor flour! Try this recipe out for yourself and serve it with my Southern Black Eyed Peas!
Grandma’s Southern Cornbread
Complete any Southern meal with a slice of fluffy, buttery and warm cornbread, just like Grandma used to make! Simple, comforting and delicious!
