You can put it in a round pan like shown here, a 9 inch round one to be exact, or a cast iron skillet if you have one available.

Making this tonight! It is very easy to make and goes so well with my husband’s stew. This was so good! We used stoneground cornmeal and buttermilk instead of milk and it was so good!

This was so good! I am not a big corn bread fan but this will now be a go to recipe. I did substitute the sugar with honey and it was great!

Very easy, and very yummy! I made a half batch for two of us, and it was just right. Good as leftovers, too.
