Cornbread is a “quick bread” which uses ground cornmeal as a main ingredient. Unlike regular bread, there’s no yeast used as a leavening agent.

This will help keep that crust nice and crispy. You can then cut the slices to serve in either pie-shaped slices or squares. Then, I like to place a couple of pats of bu...
