COOK’S NOTES

I made this recipe and it is an INCREDIBLY dense batter but bakes up nice.
The pan I used was a 9″ cast iron skillet so if you use a small skillet, it might perk up a bit and get more height with it.
It’s not a high rising fluffy cornbread but it was perfect to go with the chili I made to pair it with.
