This recipe came out so well. I was going to halve a full recipe, but glad I looked up this one instead.
I melted the butter in the skillet as the oven was heating up, and that left a good layer of melted butter in the pan. That makes the outsides nice and crispy.

This cornbread was really good. I like a sweet cornbread and this hit the spot. I added about a 1/2c of frozen corn to mine.
