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.
Ingredients
- ■1 package active dry yeast (2 1/4 tsp)
- ■1 1/4 cups warm water, divided
- ■1 cup cornmeal
- ■1/4 cup non-fat dry milk powder
- ■3 Tbs. butter, softened
- ■2 Tbs. sugar
- ■1 1/4 tsp. salt
- ■2 1/2 – 2 3/4 cups flour
Instructions
- Dissolve the yeast in 1/4 cup of warm water in a mixing bowl.
- Add all the other ingredients, except the flour and beat until smooth.
- Gradually mix in enough flour to form a soft dough.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it for 6-8 minutes. Work in extra flour if needed.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, turning it to bring up the oiled side.
- Cover lightly with a clean towel and let rise about an hour.
- Punch the dough down and shape it into a loaf.
- Put it in a greased loaf pan and cover it with the towel again.
- Let it rise until double in size, about 30 minutes.
- Bake at 375 degrees for 35-40 minutes.

Perfect, I needed a bread to go with my vegetable soup recipe tomorrow. I am so excited to try this recipe. It looks simply delicious.
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.
This looks really good! I love cornbread and enjoy all types, so I look forward to trying this recipe.
Thanks!
My daughter loves cornbread. This looks so easy to make. Thanks for sharing. I’m loving reading through your blog.
I made this tonight and it was very easy and good! I did it in the breadmaker which worked out great!
I am making chili tonight and this looks like the perfect accompaniment. Glad Google led me to your blog!
