The tattered recipe card for this corn bread proves it's been a family favorite to years. Although my daughter enjoys it anytime, they mostly request it at Thanksgiving.

I've been trying different corn bread recipes trying to find one more like the moist sweet breads we get in restaurants. This one is the closest so far. I used a square glass pan and baked it for around 30 minutes. Baking times are different for glass and aluminum pans.

I made the recipe exactly as listed, but agree the batter didn't fill the 8x8 square I used and mine took 30 minutes. Family loved it, but said it was a dessert corn bread. It is so sweet you can eat it alone. If you're looking for a savory to pair with soups, this recipe isn't it. It is great for special occasion dinners and could even be done as a breakfast bread for a brunch.

Very sweet...my kids ate it up! The recipe says the pan will be full once you pour in the batter...mine was no where near full and I still had to cook it over the 25 minutes to get the center done. Not sure why my pan wasn't full; the measurements were correct and I used a 21 cm square pan (about 8.5 in) so it was even smaller than the 9-in. Still, it turned out good and I would make it again.
