    Great recipe! I made this for my family and they loved it. I must admit though, I used a box cornbread mix (jiffy) and it turned out good. I will try this recipe again and make it entirely from scratch very soon.

    I tried this recipe a few times now, it turned out very good !
    This time I’m cooking it again, only I realized I don’t have any buttermilk !! Ugh
    I hope it turns out okay.
