This was really good southern style cornbread! I used yogurt instead of the buttermilk and it was really moist!

Description
Old time homemade cornbread that we all love. Try it and you will love it, too.
Ingredients
- 1-¼ cup Yellow Cornbread
- ¾ cups All-purpose Flour
- 1-½ teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 whole Eggs, Separated
- 1-¼ cup Buttermilk
- ½ sticks Butter
Preparation
Mix all dry ingredients in a bowl. Beat egg yolks and buttermilk in a separate bowl. Beat egg whites in another bowl until frothy
Put the butter in an 8″ square pan (can use cast iron or metal, not glass) in a 400-degree preheated oven for 2 minutes.
During this 2 minutes, add the egg yolk and buttermilk mixture to the dry ingredients above and mix well, then fold in the beaten egg whites.
Get the hot buttered pan out of the oven carefully and make sure the melted butter is equally distributed. Put the batter in and return to the 400-degree oven for 25-30 minutes until golden.
Cool and cut in squares to eat and enjoy!

Actually, southern cornbread is generally drier due to the fact that more cornmeal is used than flour — more cakelike cornbread is a “northern” thing. Also, the southern version is less sweet. I appreciate your review but had to comment on the difference between southern and northern style (if I can call it that) cornbread. I also like your suggestion on using cream style corn, let me know how that comes out if you try it! Thanks.

My family enjoys corn bread along with our baked beans so I decided to give this Southern Style Corn Bread recipe a try.
I followed the recipe exactly and I wasn’t happy with the results. It was dry and a bit more time consuming than the other corn bread recipe I use.
I would recommend adding frozen corn or fresh corn kernels to this recipe to make it moister. I did, however, liked the idea of adding butter to the pan before adding the butter. It gave the bread a crispy and buttery exterior.
