Hice este pan de maiz en un apuro antes de una cena con amigos. En solo 5 minutos, tuve un pan tierno y dulce que todos disfrutaron! Definitivamente es una receta ganadora para los papás ocupados como yo.

So easy. I made this cornbread just before my friends came over. We were pleasantly surprised at how fluffy it was. I’ve never made cornbread so quick, and it turned out just delicious. This will be my go-to recipe for sure.

I like this recipe but it came out a bit grainy in texture for me. Might be better if the mixture sits for a few minutes before cooking just to let the cornmeal soften a bit. I also added an extra teaspoon of sugar since I like it a little bit sweeter. 🙂
