I've got a man in the house that loves cornbread. Now, this recipe isn't for true southern cornbread because it has sugar in it. But no worries, I'm a west coast gal born and raised and this is how we do it 'round here. Don't get me wrong, I love that good southern corn bread, but these babies are west coast corn bread muffins and they are still delicious. They are simple to whip up, and since they are muffin style, they are even easier to serve. Try it with a little orange honey butter. Fantastic!
