Created for Cornbread is King challenge in the Culinary Quest 2014. Really, what did you think I would make?? ;) I looked at many different cornbread recipes, mixed & matched what I wanted for basic ingredients then put my North African/Middle Eastern spin on it. It worked BRILLIANTLY. I've never been so pleased with the results of a concocted recipe. Enjoy! xo Bethie

    Quickly combine wet & dry ingredients. Fold & mix gently but thoroughly. Don't over mix.

    Pour into skillet, smooth top & bake for 30 -35 minutes until lightly browned on top & edges pull away from skillet just a weeee bit.
  • 7
    While it's baking, combine the softened butter with the honey thoroughly & refrigerate.
  • 8
    When cornbread is done, allow it to cool for a few minutes before slathering with the honey butter. ENJOY!
