"The North thinks it know how to make corn bread, but this is a gross superstition. Perhaps no bread in the world is quite as good as Southern corn bread, and perhaps no bread in the world is quite as bad as the Northern imitation of it.” --Mark Twain

Cornbread has always been my favorite - I mean right from the time I got introduced to it 2 yrs ago. An American staple and a must in every thanksgiving dinner, Cornbread has been around for so long.Southern or Northern, I dunno, but in few cases, I had issues with the cornbread, when it was too eggy! Although I do use eggs for baking, I hate the taste of eggs and in baking it should be to the level that I really don't get either the smell or the taste of eggs. That being said, in many instances, the cornbread was a major disappointment to me (esp.) So instead of moping, I started making my own cornbread where I can control the ingredients to my liking and make it as healthy and wealthy as possible.

Out of many variations, this is one combo which I have come to like which I tried to mix and match from various recipes. Its neither too eggy nor it is too rich. Very yummy without lots of calories.
