Whether you slice it or crumble it, we're loving this cornbread recipe. This cornbread recipe does include sugar, which we know is a region-wide debate, but trust us. We developed this recipe to work into our Southern Cornbread Dressing, so this hint of something sweet is perfect. If you want to enjoy this recipe on its own, try a flavored butter that will cut some of the sweetness. For those who don't mind a sweet cornbread, you're all set. Enjoy this recipe for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Southern corn bread does not have any sugar in it. This recipe must have come from north of clarksdale, MS

Sandra Mull is right. Never even a pinch of sugar in cornbread or in cornbread dressing, Sugar. Never, ever! Ruins it. Save it for the tea.

This is cornbread, but it’s not southern cornbread. Real southern cornbread contains self-rising cornmeal, not mix, no flour, and no sugar. And, while butter is optional, bacon grease is not because it is the real-deal shortening.
