A Great Cornbread Recipe

I've been searching for the perfect cornbread recipe for the last couple of years. After years of trying multiple recipes that were either too dry, flavour-less, or too dense - I stumbled upon this recipe. I can't remember where I found the recipe but as soon as I find it, I'll make sure and give them credit. This recipes bakes up light and fluffy almost cake like and I really like that texture. It's the type of cornbread that you can eat with a chilli or, just with some butter and a nice cup of tea.

As with every recipe that I try, I put my own spin on it and am constantly modifying the ingredients to  take the recipe to the next level recipe to the next level. I've decided to share the basic recipe with you but will update this as as I keep tweaking to make it even better

Enjoy and comment!
