Skillet Cornbread


Had a pot of bean soup cooking away on the stove all day today and thought that a nice skillet of cornbread would be good along side of it. I love things cooked in cast iron skillets especially cornbread!  It turns out nice and crunchy on the edges and moist on the inside.  I like my cornbread on the sweet side, so I add a little brown sugar, honey and regular sugar and it turns out perfect!


Serve it while it's still warm with butter and honey.  MMMmmmmm.

Enjoy!
