Very Moist Cornbread – Recipe
It became our family tradition to make homemade cornbread, to serve with our Thanksgiving dinner.
I will share a cornbread recipe my daughter tried last year, and everyone really enjoyed it, so hopefully you will to. It is very light, moist, and savory, which makes it that much more interesting.

Notes
I use Vegetable Crisco Shortening to grease my baking sheets. I know some bakers use butter, but I think butter burns much faster, so I prefer Crisco Shortening.
