Would you believe that I really just had my first piece of cornbread a few years ago? I think I had tried some as a child and it was very dry, which turned me off from it immediately. But years later, I tried some real cornbread – it was flavorful and delicious and I never looked back.

I am by no means an expert in cornbread or any southern dish, but we absolutely devoured the entire pan in one night.

Especially since it was slathered in cinnamon honey butter.
