Well it's cornbread and beans kinda weather now. And I need help!!
I usually make that small boxed sweet cornbread (Jiffy). We really like the flavor but don't like the fact that it falls apart so easily. My husband likes to take the left over cornbread and crumble it in a glass then he pours milk and a little sugar over it. That's not for me. YUCK!! Anyway...If anyone has a recipe for a sweet cornbread that does not fall apart I would really appreciate it.
Thanks........

I use the following.
This is a recipe that is on the 5 pound bag of white lily Buttermilk enriched white corn meal mix. I modified the shortening part.
Two cups corn meal mix
1 1/4 to 1 1/2 cups buttermilk,
1/4 cup Crisco all vegetable oil
--- OR ---
1/4 cup Crisco all vegetable shortening
1 large egg,
1 to 2 tbsps sugar
Heat the oven to 425 degrees put the shortening into 8 or 10' pan and melt the shortening. Combine all the ingredients until moist, pour all into hot pan with shortening. Bake 20-25 minutes for 10' pan Bake for 25 to 30 minutes for 8"pan.
Remove from oven, let set for a few minutes turn out on a plate cut into serving pieces and enjoy.
I have heated the shortening to melting and poured it into mix and stirred until moist then poured into hot pan. I prefer the first method best as it doesn't stick to the pan.

I add one well beaten egg to the Jiffy - makes it just right for splitting in half for butter & honey - without crumbling.

I use Marie Callender also. Even the low fat mix is moist and holds its shape for cutting and buttering.

If you want to try another box mix-give Krusteaz Honey Cornbread mix a try. It's quick ad tastes great.

I don't like my cornbread sweet. I use the recipe from the Albers Corn Meal box, only I use 1T. sugar instead of 1/2c.
The real secret to keeping it from falling apart is to bake it in a cast iron skillet instead of a baking pan. It forms a nice crust, making it easy to slice into wedges and serve. Works for me every time.

I use a Better Homes and Garden Recipe. Never had it fall apart, my husband likes to dunk his in milk. For sweet cornbread I would use milk not buttermilk, this adds a tang.
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup sugar (I use less, we don't care for it too sweet)
4 Tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp salt
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1/4 cup cooking oil or butter melted
Stir together dry indredients, add wet ingredients. Beat until smooth (do not overbeat) I use a spatula. Pour in greased pan (9x9) bake 425 about 20-25 min or until golden brown.
