American sweet Cornbread

East Coast Grill Cornbread

This cornbread recipe makes a sweet, soft cornbread that goes incredibly well with any smoked or grilled meat, fowl, or seafood. Try serving leftover cornbread toasted and slathered in butter with breakfast, or cut into cubes and toasted to make croutons, or mixed with sausage and apples for cornbread stuffing, or use your imagination...
