Donyou know how I can use regular flour with this recipe?

Rosie I made the chicken and dumplings for my husband and he loved it thanks again
Thank you for trusting my recipe enough to try it! XOXOX
In regards to your cornbread dressing recipe you said that we can use your cornbread recipe to make the cornbread. Is this correct? Also is there a difference between flour and light baking flour?
Yes you can use this cornbread for dressing. Light baking flour is just a self rising flour. Therefore you don’t have to add any rising agents. All purpose flour needs a rising agent. I hope this helps! 🙂
Hi. I love how easy you make it to follow your recipe but in California there are no stores that have light baking flour so what do I do so far as ingredients? 🙁
You can use self rising flour.
Can I make this with yellow cornmeal?
You sure can!
I used this recipe last year and i cannot wait til tomorrow to make it again…thank you again Rosie for sharing this recipe and Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!
Btw im making your cornbread to add to your dressing recipe!!
can i use buttermilk for this recipe
Yes you can.
this cornbread was great
I made this cornbread for breakfast. It was so good that my daughter hugged me. Keep these simple, fast and delicious recipes coming.
I made your cornbread and it seemed to turn out very good. However It took much longer than 35 minutes. I think my ingredients may have been off. Any suggestions.? Also I made your awesome peach cobbler but my filling is very dark. Does the vanilla make it dark? Maybe 1 tablespoon instead of 2 or will that change the taste.
Just made this cornbread today, which is different from the way I usually make it. It was a hit, it was almost like eating cake, the family devoured it with my pot roast dinner!
I’m glad that you liked the cornbread Portia! XOXO

So glad that you liked the recipe!
Hi Rosie! Thanks for these recipes! I’ve made the soul food mac and cheese and my family loves it. Quick question, can I make cornbread muffins with this recipe using muffin tins? We are having a chili cook-off party at my job this Friday ahead of the super bowl (go Pats!) and thought this would be a good complement to it. Have a blessed day! 🙂
Absolutely! You can definitely make corn muffins using this recipe! XOXO
OMG! I just made tho cornbread!! It was easy to make and DELICIOUS!!
Wow!!! Amazing, something the whole family loves, which is hard to do. Please keep the recipes coming.
One question, did you say that you use this recipe for your cornbread dressing? Not sure if I read that correctly. I have never used sweet cornbread for my dressing, curious how it would turn out.
Thanks again for sharing
Doni
Hi Doni, I’m glad that you liked the recipe! I actually use my southern cornbread recipe for my dressings now.
Thanks for the video! My husband and I agree that this is the best cornbread we’ve ever had!!! You are amazing!
I appreciate you coming by Lana! XOXO
This looks really good! I can’t wait to try it but I don’t have self-rising flour. What leavening and salt adjustments should I make using regular all-purpose flour?
Hi Dottie! You can take a look at my Southern Cornbread recipe, and add sugar to it 🙂
were can i buy your Rosamae seasonings granny’s secret fried chicken seasoning, i am in New Bern, North Carolina

For your Homemade Sweet Cornbread recipe, do you use white corn meal or white corn meal mix? Can you share what brand you use for both the flour and cornmeal? Thank you!
I usually use Albers yellow cornmeal for my cornbread. XOXO
