❤️WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE

If you have followed our site for any amount of time you know we are huge sorghum fans. When Leigh and I were little we grew up in a community that had a wonderful fall festival and they made sorghum at the festival. It always smelled so good! This cornbread is delicious with butter and a cup of coffee.

🍽️HOW TO MAKE

The hardest part about this recipe is organizing your ingredients. I always like to get everything out and measured correctly before I start.

Step 2

⭐TIP

This recipe calls for buttermilk and many people will ask if you can use a buttermilk substitute. You can but it will change the fat content of the cornbread. The buttermilk adds fat which is what makes the cornbread delicious.

You can also use a 2 quart baking pan, but be sure and check on how quickly it is cooking and you would need to spray the pan instead of melting the butter in it.
