This cornbread is the perfect accompaniment to a spicy chili or soup. I serve it with my Black Bean Vegetable soup. This is a very tender cornbread, so you might want to eat it with a fork! It's easy to make this Gluten Free - Just substitute a GF all purpose flour for regular all purpose flour. Comes out great.
