Yeast Cornbread

Next time, I’m going to double this recipe.  This bread is good stuff.  I made it on Thanksgiving Day to go with our soup.  My mom gave me the recipe, but I think it originally comes from Taste of Home Magazine.  Don’t be afraid of the yeast in this recipe.  It’s very easy to make.

Here’s what you’ll need:

We ate the bread warm from the oven.  Mom said it’s very good toasted, but we had none left over to try it that way.

    Thanks for a yummy recipe… I made this for dinner tonight. We ate it with Chicken Noodle soup and it was SO delicious. My 5 year old thanked me for making the best bread ever and added that I was the best chef ever. Good thing I doubled the recipe. We’ll have the rest for breakfast.
