My late hubby was born & raised in Jackson, MS and first time I made him cornbread from scratch he said, "Honey this cornbread is sweet", I replied, yep I put sugar on the top of it...well he ate that cornbread because the guy loved me so much, from then on out I made it for him w/o the sugar.....Cause I loved him.
Awww you're so sweet!
💕
I'm from Biloxi MS our cornbread is white cornmeal and buttermilk but now that I am eating Keto I tried the first recipe and it was delicious.
Awwww!
I'm a Mississippi Gal myself. I grew up without sugar in my cornbread. But I do put about 2T of sugar in my cornbread. You really can't taste it tho. I make my cornbread from scratch with some homemade soup.....Have Mercy!!!
From southern Alabama here: My wife’s grandma’s corn bread recipe was corn meal and water, fried in bacon grease (in a cast iron skillet, of course), crisp on the outside, done on the inside. Served piping hot with butter. Great!
YESSS!!! 🙂🙂
That's good too we call them corn bread fritters and so delicious and fast when you are hungry.....and don't want to wait till the cornbread bakes.....
“ Cain’t never get too much grease!”
It's called hot water cornbread.
@@HighfalutinLowCarb so did you ever combine best of recipes and create your own keto cornbread recipe? Just wondering 😃 I'd like to see that video
“Sweet cornbread is called cake.” “Cornbread should be made in a cast iron skillet so the butter can fry the outside.” You, sir, are a true Southerner who was raised right. I’m definitely going to try that last recipe.
Ha! Thanks, hotbluflame! 😜👍
southerners are fattest of all USA. beware of advice for losing weight from a fat southerner.
I was so happy when you said, "Southern cornbread is not sweet." I have told so many people over the years, but they seem to think Jiffy is the pinnacle of cornbread lol
Jiffy is for people who can't cook at all.....just make a cake.....
Jiffy is delicious but whatever
Y'all are so bougie
Sorry everyone but I love it sweet🥰
It depends on where you grew up. Unsweetened cornbread always seemed somehow deficient to me. I love Jiffy mix. LOL
Im from minnesota and never knew cornbread to be sweet. But we did often drizzle honey on top of it when eating it.
The quality of your videos are on par with high production tv. For you to push them out 'almost' weekly is impressive. Thanks . You put joy ( I'm sure not only me) into my day.
thelen72 Wow. Thank you. That's one of the best comments I've received. I'm just learning video production and RUclips in general, so I hope my videos get even better.
I'm a "cord cutter" that dumped cable for streaming. The thing I missed most was cooking shows. I spent my early adult life watching Food Network and PBS cooking shows non-stop. Not the 2010's Food Network-style reality competition shows, but the old-school Food Network shows like Alton Brown and Mario Batali and Sarah Molton. After cutting the cord, I found I wasn't watching much "regular" tv, but I missed those half-hour shows of information and just COOKING. So, I decided to get off my fat butt and start making my own! I figured if *I* liked watching someone cook for a half hour, then maybe other folks did, too. Even if I never make the recipes, engrossing myself in low carb media keeps me focused on my goals of eating well and improving my health. So I started this channel. And comments like yours make it so worth while. Thank you, thank you, thank you. ❤️❤️❤️😍🙏🙏
😊😊
Baby corns make the best cornbread used with almond flour with pork rinds. It hasn't developed the sugar/carb content, yet has the taste of corn. Don't forget to brown the crust in cast iron.
Hey Wes, I know this is an old video, but recently I used the technique you mentioned for corn bread (bacon grease in a hot cast iron skillet) and my mom loved it so much she told me to come here and tell you how she appreciates you. Thank you so much Wes, from my family to yours
Amen on the sweeteners. Sweet cornbread is called cake. Love your videos!
It was a romantic moment for me when you were describing skillet cornbread. When you said" put the bacon fat in the skillet, pour the batter in, and listen to it sizzle." I blushed, and nearly fainted again. 🌽🍞❤
cice fashion Haha! Hang on over there! 😜😍
My gma makes skillet cornbread but she puts sugar in her cornbread and I love it
YES! LOL
sweet??... sac religion!!
I JUST FOUND YOUR CHANNEL!!! And boy oh boy am I addicted!!! I have binged on this today crazy!!! LOVE you!!! You are funny and charismatic and sweet! Can’t wait to try some of these recipes!!!
Thank you so much, Imari! Welcome aboard! 😃❤️
I am new to both low carb and your RUclips channel. Super glad that I found you. I especially appreciate your honesty when reviewing a recipe. Your not afraid to give your opinion. Looking forward to binge watching more of your videos.
We always enjoy your comparisons. My folks were from the south and we never had cornbread with sugar in it. I enjoy your southern humor. It reminds me of all of my family that lived in the south. I even caught your "peep eye", lol. It's been years since I heard that phrase. I do like grinding up pork rinds and combining them with parmesan cheese and using them as bread crumbs or in place of crushed crackers in meatballs or even meatloaf. I will try them all, but I am sure I will enjoy the one with pork rinds if I can afford the extract. lol
I love that you give the credit to the original RUclipsrs that you got the recipes from. Great job.
Thank you 😊
I finally made the Fluffy Chicks cornbread. It only made 5 for me. I have a cast iron pan made for individual corn shape servings for corn bread. The cornbread came out golden on top and delicious!!! Will be making this again! I always trust your recommendations! You have the perfect taste buds for me! Also corn bread made with sugar is cake!
I know that this is a pretty old video ... but you can make the pork rinds and corn extract recipe and cook it in a larger cast iron skillet. I do it all the time and it turns out amazing! You get that traditional sizzle AND you get the "crust". It's amazing.
Sounds almost like crackling cornbread!
Bless you for passing that tidbit along. It hurt my heart when he started talking about baby skillets and ramakins.
Would love to know your recipe for the skillet size..
Baby corn makes good grits. They are yellow grits instead of white, but it worked when I tried it.
There's a recipe floating around for shrimp and baby corn cheese grits.
Of course, you can use your favorite sauce for the shrimp.
Also, I've made baby corn cornbread with pureed corn. It was good but very moist, almost wet inside. I saw someone else make it and they squeezed the water out after the corn was pureed. I haven't tried it yet but it looked like the right consistency for cornbread. I'm going to try that next time.
The less extravagant items per recipe the better. I have spent SO much money on all these ingredients, and every time I turn around, a recipe calls for yet ANOTHER expensive ingredient. I'd love to see a recipe book that ONLY uses the basics, like the first two recipes you prepared. And yes, southern cornbread is NOT sweet! Great videos, by the way!!!
Thanks, Maggie Sue!! ❤️❤️
I agree.! I am so tired of ordering weird stuff from Amazon! You can never get all the ingredients! I can't even find the stuff I have because there so much crap. Just when you think you have every baking ingredient know to man somebody puts our a keto recipe with Lupin Flour.
@nativetexan53 Amen...
I had to empty my biggest, deepest cupboard just my personal Keto ingredients, as they've taken over & the family is all please, please make a home for them bc we're tired of seeing them everywhere...
Everything else had to be relegated back into our main pantry, otherwise it would have had to have been tossed out for lack of room... Keto is taking over our space, & it feels like it's never ending!!
@@leahrowe847
>>otherwise it would have had to have been tossed out
@frankschwartz7405 LOL... we're literally making separate meals for just me at this point, bc my carb threshold is so low. It's frustrating to eat differently than everyone else for every single meal, even if what I'm eating might be similar... it just takes so much time.
I find myself eating the same darn thing over & over again, bc I can just batch/bulk cook it once a wk, portion it out, & reheat it without thought. There might not be a lot of variety each wk, but it's easier... I'm also kind of a creature of habit, so I'll get on a kick for one flavor profile & be able to eat it for several months b4 I'm sick of it, luckily enough. So far, I haven't burnt myself out of any of my favorites... 11 months & counting!
I just watched your bread and cornbread shows. I love your show! You are very entertaining. I am on Keto a diet. I was missing breads so I decided to check recipes out. I appreciate you trying them out first.
Re-do the almond flour one, take away the sweetener, add a little baby corn AND the corn flavoring.. i think you'll have a winner.
That was definitely the direction I anticipated going, but I honestly much preferred the texture of the protein-powder version. I'm definitely going to try your idea for making cornbread for cornbread dressing! Thanks as always for commenting, Christian! If you decide to try the altered version you mentioned, come back and let me know what you thought!
Highfalutin' Low Carb Can't wait!!!! 🤓
You got it, brother. Love your videos.
Don't forget the bacon 🥓grease.😋
I agree , Christian.....
I want to try the 3rd one, that looks great!
I tried Dennis's fake cornbread recipe on his Black Tie Kitchen channel, it was excellent. He also uses Amoretti. I have a less expensive corn flavoring that I used. It takes more, but it's still pretty good.
Dennis's recipe uses a small amount of allulose, (not enough to make it sweet, but it helps keep it moist) and bakes it in a cast iron skillet. I was amazed that I have one that fits in my countertop oven. My real oven is broken, that's all I have for now.
I like sweet corn bread, (call it cake, I don't care!) and added extra allulose, and it still barely tasted sweet to me. So you might like his.
I feel like the Yankee in the room because I love a sweet corn muffin.
Aww, well we still love you regardless, Shawna! LOL Lots of folks like sweet corn muffins... you're actually probably in the majority! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Sweet, cake like moist heavenly real cornbread is the best
Isn't it, though?? Gods.. I love sweet cornbread.
I like both but it depends what Im eating it with. Non sweetened cornbread with my pinto beans or chili please. Hehe
Midwesterner here and I live for sweet cornbread and so does most of my friends as well. I found a recipe for a honey buttermilk cornbread that is to die for. I will really miss it when I start keto.
You are an awesome presenter. So glad I found a site which reviews recipes, since this obviously saves time and money. Also learned from the commenters in this thread. Thanks and keep up the good work!
Absolutely love your channel. Have been on keto for 4 weeks and it's great to know that I can enjoy foods that I love by following recipes like this. Keep it up!
Kendall Reiss Thank you so much, Kendall! Keto-on!
I think you could make the recipe in a cast iron cornbread pan, either the one with stick shapes or the one that's divided into wedges. Then, if you wanted more than two pieces, you could expand the recipe to fit however many sticks or wedges you wanted.
I found a much cheaper extract on Amazon for us broke folks! Its called One on One Flavors: Cornbread flavor concentrate! Its $9.99 for a 2oz bottle and only takes a few drops for a batch of keto cornbread.
Thanks for sharing! They sent me a bottle to test shortly after I filmed this video and this reminds me that I must have stuck it in the cabinet and forgot about it! I’ll pull it out and give it a go! Certainly cheaper than the Amoretti!
That didn't come up when I bought mine, which was before I saw this video, in fact, many years before, because I was buying this stuff when it was being manufactured by another company. It was even more expensive then.
Just beware....of cheaper knock-offs....Bobby Flav. City (if you know who he is) He is great chef and researches all his approved products....say don't buy anything that has Natural Flavor added.....!!! not approved by the best....check him out.....
@@HighfalutinLowCarb Did you ever try the other flavoring? Was it any good?
I'm curious too.
I just happen to be watching this video for the first time on Father's Day 2021. I was born and raised just outside of Atlanta, Georgia. My parents loved and prepared cornbread all of the time. My dad was born during WW2. I distinctly remember that he loved to put cornbread into a tall glass and pour buttermilk over it. To him, it was a treat. 😊
My daddy did the same thing. Sometimes he used regular milk if we had no buttermilk. This was a late night snack for him. This brought back memories. 🥰
I'm a southern girl and I couldn't agree more about the sweet corn bread. My daddy called that Johnny Cake. And it's hilarious how you snurl your nose every time you say "sweetener". 😂
+Rhonda J Ha ha! We gotta 'keep it real' down here in the South! Thanks for watching and commenting, Rhonda! 🌽❤️🙏
Rhonda J i agree, and chuckled at his reaction to sweetner in cornbread ☺ southern girl here!! No sugar in cornbread for me.
Rhonda J What part of the South are you from? I grew up in New Orleans. Everyone I knew made sweet cornbread.
DrellyBee504 - Tennessee. 🙂
Rhonda J speak the truth. I hail from Alabama and cornbread is NOT sweet. Jiffy mix is sweet but it isn't cornbread
My paternal grandmother was from Nebraska and used sugar in her cornbread. As kids we thought her cold cornbread made a great afternoon snack. Mom from Texas did not use sugar - great cornbread for beans and soups IMO
This is one of my favorite videos, Wesley! I love jalapeno corn bread as well.I like your idea of combining the best of each of these recipes! No sugar or coconut with chopped baby corn for texture, sweet corn extract for taste and pork rinds. Plus, I would try using that extract in all corn recipes.
I love your channel and watch your videos for many reasons, and one is that I am dealing with anxiety and stress and your voice and the high quality of your productions totally calms me down and puts me in a different world...thank you.
Thank you for stopping by to let me know that. I have my favorite creators that are my “go-to” when I just want something on in the background to keep me calm. It makes me happy to know you think that way of my channel.
Wishing you a wonderful New Year of peace and tranquility. XOXO -wes
Hi Wes, I am also definitely engaged and interested in your wonderful content too :-) You help keep ME on track in my low carb journey as well. I gotta try those grits with the cheese, they look amazing. Oh, and I am married to a Tennessee boy who's paternal family hails from Ackerman, MS!! xox Happy New Year to you and your loved ones. @@HighfalutinLowCarb
I cooked fluffy chix recipe and tripled it then baked it in a medium cast iron pan. I had a 1/2 cup pork rinds and substituted equal amounts oat fiber and almond flour for the rest. I didn’t have sour cream and used watered down cream cheese with apple cider vinegar. Other than that it tasted great except I should have blended the cream cheese a little more!
Definitely making the Baby Corn Bread. Great tips, especially using cast iron skillet with butter on the bottom. My southern grandmothers both added bacon fat & melted butter to the batter. Yum! 😋
Took the cornbread recipe from OOO Cornbread Flavors box and added that great idea of roasted baby corn bits and OMG! It took me back to pre-keto SaraLee Corn muffins, in the best possible way. Thank you for making everything seem do-able and for your great on-screen personality. I'm afraid to watch your "update" video because I'm afraid you might change direction, but I would love to see more from you! Taste tests. Shopping. Whatever you do...I'm there! Love you!
Honey, you are just the sweetest thing. You've got the brightest personality and that gentlemenly honesty. You earned yourself a subacriber. Keep it comin' darlin.

You have an amazing personality. Watching your shows I feel like I know you. Great JOB!
Thanks, Woody!
I love being able to support you, Wesley. Thank you for putting the links below! We're on this journey together. God bless you and your lovely family.
Hi Wes. I just made the almond flour corn bread with the added mashed baby corns. Yummy. I also substituted the water for all the corn liquid from the can of baby corn. Yummy. It's really corn flavour. I don't need the corn flavouring extract. Thanks again.
That’s a great idea to use the water! 👍👍
Im really enjoying your videos. You're respectful, good speed, clean environment, humorous! Love the southern accent as well! :) Thanks!
I am southerner also! I agree with you 100%! I dont like sweet cornbread either!!!
+Sandra Hansen Glad to know I'm not the only one! Thanks for watching and commenting, Sandra! ❤️🙏
You are so right! Southern cornbread is not sweet and cast iron skillet in my family too! However, you can't tell my husband that. He loves his cornbread a little sweet. I'm from Tennessee and we never put sugar in our cornbread, but my husband grew up in Texas and his Mother put a little sugar in her cornbread and he loves it like that! I really enjoy watching you cook and your comments are hilarious! You do need your own show on the Food Channel! Keep the videos coming - love you!
Damn, you go the extra mile to find good recipes! Thank you.
I cook cornbread almost every day. Sometimes I cook multiple pans. I like it plain, fancy, thin, thick, baked and pan fried.
I LOVE cornbread and buttermilk.
Thank you! While on rare occasions I enjoy a sweet "corn bread", that is not my idea of real Southern corn bread. I grew up here in Georgia with my Mama making it like you said, in that hot greased cast iron skillet and getting that amazing crust! Not much better than a hot, buttered piece right out of the oven. :-) Love your videos.
Edith Hall Just reading your comment made my mouth water. LOL. Says it all. ❤️❤️❤️
Sweet bread is not good with beans or chili
“Not much better...”
I agree! Unless it’s a piece for breakfast the next day, split and buttered and browned in the skillet and then drizzled with syrup. Mmmm...
@@Lucinda_Jackson Mouth was a waterin’ to you got to the syrup drizzle!!
@@julieklie2344
That’s okay - we can eat together and I’ll just take your syrup! 💕
You are the sweetest guy!!! Thanks for doing all of the work and I'm glad you found one you like!
You are so right. Corn bread is never sweet. Thank you for the comparison recipes. This Texas girl misses her corn bread on keto. Can't wait to experiment with a combination of these! Love you, Love your videos!
Dixie H Thank you so much! If you experiment, come back and let me know how it goes! 🌽❤️🙏
Love your channel! You understand my need to be keto, southern and eat flavorful foods
Just hearing you talk about your family’s cornbread is divine...you need to do a mama and daddy’s recipe - you know, for treat meals 😂
Use the corn flavoring in the almond flour put a tiny bit of salt no sugar
yeah, I was born and raised in the Western United States and we didn't really have Southern cornbread- my mom made what she called "Johnnycake" and every once in awhile she would include chopped up fried bacon in the batter and cooked it in with the cornbread but it was a little bit sweet- so you guys are right about that- depends on the area of the country you're from what type of cornbread you actually grew up with- I would like to try the Savory kind but I think I'll always enjoy Johnnycake as well ;)
I like the comparison of different recipes / taste tests.... Nice
If it don’t sizzle when it hits the cast iron skillet, it ain’t cornbread!!!
Amen!
Raised in SC and Ga. The only way the do it is to preheat thr cast iron skillet in the oven before adding the cornbread batter. That sweet situation is not cornbread, its a Johnny Cake. I love the way u snarl when u talk about putting sweetener in the cornbread.
1st recipe is at the beginning, 5:50 for second recipe, 12:57 for 3rd recipe!
I have been attempting different versions of "cornbread" for the past week, to attempt dressing again this year for Thanksgiving. Your comments about putting that extract "back in it's house" and leaving it on the shelf to just look at because it's so expensive have me laughing out loud this morning! Same, man! As good as it is, I still can't believe I bought that and will never tell anyone what I paid for it.
Wow, I just realized I have left 2 comments on this, a year apart! I'm still working on perfecting this cornbread thing. *sigh* I refuse to give up.
Okay now, lol. I was born in TX and sweet cornbread and red beans or sweet cornbread and black eyed peas was a must growing up. I still add a tiny bit of sweetener. It should be savory sweet. Not cake or cookie sweet.
Terri Boyd Okay. I'll give you this one, Terri! 😜. (Thanks for watching and commenting!)
Highfalutin' Low Carb 😁
Same here! My husband was born in LA and he is as backwoods as they come lol. He love a little sugar in his cornbread
Sugar simply overpowers the corn flavor of corn bread. I can remember my first wife getting a glass of iced tea and then pouring in sugar until the glass was at least one third sugar and then trying to stir it in. Kind of like tea flavored sugar. I still cringe today fifty years later. I haven't put sugar in tea or coffee since I was a kid. If you avoid sugar then foods start to taste like the food should taste.
do u live in north TX..kidding i live in nc and i agree with everything he said about the sweet, the texture
I am new to your channel but will be a regular from now on. Have already shared you with friends and family!! Love your videos, appreciate the honesty and tips and I too think you should be on the Food Network with your own show for Low Carb - Keto community. (I may write them a letter) Kudos to your for changing your lifestyle and helping others. I am 66 and a pretty good cook but can still learn a TON from you! Besides, I so enjoy your humor and presentation.
I'm thinking on the third recipe the pork rinds are a wink to crackling cornbread!
You are such a genuine person, I really appreciate how you enjoy what you are doing, God bless!
Would love to see you one Food Network. I think I would watch it every time it came on. Thanks for your videos. Good you try all the low carb foods for us before we have to make the mistake. Thanks
Thanks, Steve! I appreciate the support! Stay tuned!
You are my go to site when I want to find the best recipe for different foods. Major thanks.
Thank You! I just HATE biting in to sweet cornbread. I'll be all excited for some cornbread only to be so disappointed 😢
Thanks for this. Been looking for low carb Cornbread recipes!
I love your personality!! I laugh sooooo hard watching your videos!!
Cynty J Ha! Just wait’ll you see the next one! Grrrrr! LOL
It's so nice to see a true Southerner talk about cornbread! Absolutely, no sugar in cornbread! And we always used an iron skillet with bacon grease. My Mammaw made the best cornbread and she put bacon grease in the cornbread and in the hot skillet. Her cornbread had the best crust!
I love it! You are correct about the Southern Cornbread is NOT sweet!
Southern Ark Homestead Thank you! ❤️🙏
and wouldnt it be gross because my grandmas had baconfat in it. amazing too.
Hi SAH, wait a minute, I was born in Rhode island and always heard those "Southerners" added sugar to their cornbread, and we Northeasters didn't. Fran
Ummm, I’m Southern born & bred (Georgia) as are all my family. Everyone puts sugar in it, so... maybe it’s a state to state thing? Not a lot. My grandma from Alabama put less than my Florida grandma but still sugar. Definitely use the cast iron though. Heat the oil in the pan while mixing the rest of the ingredients & then pour hot oil in last, just prior to adding mixture to pan. And nobody put actual corn kernels in there. Gross! 😄
BZT WRONG we eat it in Georgia too lol we like our cornbread sweet just like we like our sweet tea sweet most Southern states don't make their tea sweet enough lol. Boyfriend is Canadian and they don't use sugar so I think he has it backwards.
You are making me so hungry talking about cornbread in a skillet nice and crunchy
OMG THANK YOU!!!! for saying cornbread doesn't have to be sweet, I thought I was the only one.
WOW That's WOW!!! I too was looking for a low-carb cornbread because I am a bread person I have to have bread with each meal that I prepare but I'm so glad that I found this video it will help me with my low carb carbing thanks
Can you make a "flakers" or flax seed crackers review/battle?
You are fun to watch! Glad I watched your video!! Def going to try the last recipe!!
Im in love with your personality! Great content. Made me happy to see a notification from you! Im a new subbie :) Next time how about keto donut comparisons? Bacon maple...cream filled...chocolate? Eh just a thought! 😘😘
aNGIE s Thanks for the kind words! I'll add these to my list! :-)
keto long johns would make my life complete
I use organic whole ground corn meal for my cornbread. It has a coarser and crumblier texture than commercial cornmeal. With that being said, wonder what could I add into the recipe to give that texture? Adding butter to the mixture prior to pouring it into a hot cast-iron skillet with melted bacon grease is definitely the way to do it!!
Thank you for your time and tips; I really enjoy your videos.
I’m South Georgia raised, now live in southern Missouri, but I totally agree with you on sweet cornbread. It ain’t southern.
For sure.....but if you use buttermilk you need to add a little of something sweet to off set the sour milk....I use about a half-tsp. only....and it is not sweet at all.....
I must say i loved your reaction to the last one! Great information i love your videos.
PS: I always use a hot cast iron skillet and heat the bacon grease in it as the oven is preheating so the outside is nice and crispy...the next day my west Texas born husband of almost 39 years, eats some of the leftover cornbread in either sweet milk or buttermilk neither of which would I touch unless I was starving....and, again, to a recipe of cornbread batter to fill a 9” cast iron skillet, I only use about 2 Tbsps. of sugar and it has never been compared to cake.
I'm a Yankee from NJ, and I don't like sweet corn bread either! Thanks for explaining the reason for the cast iron skillet. I always made it in a square pan, but have not tried it since going keto. BTW, my late husband used to say "corn bread should not be sweet or it would just be cake," and he was a Yankee (from NY) too! TBH, I always thought sweet corn bread must be a Southern thing, like sweet tea, so my bad! Can't wait to try this!!
I'm a Mississippi girl and sugar in cornbread is a no-no. We refer to that as sweetbread, not cornbread. I've always made my cornbread in a cast iron skillet coated in a layer of bacon grease. You can throw in some diced yellow squash for color and to fool some people who like corn in theirs(such as my husband). Shoot, jazz it up even further and add a little diced jalapeno, onion, and shredded cheese.
I see we’re gonna get along just fine....
Right! We don't do sweet muffins in Mississippi. Now sweet tea on the other hand...
Laurie G and if you are not keto add some creamed corn as well!
Hi Wes! I just discovered you and I ❤️ you. I am making my slowly through all o f your videos and I have made 3 recipes from your battles. All were winners: chocolate cake, French fries and the latest cornbread. Oh my word! They were all better than the next. You have my confidence 💯. Just so you know, I got sizzle when I dropped my cornbread batter in the dishes. I left them in the oven longer than 5 minutes. Because I am like you....that sizzle is everything! I wish I could send you a picture. They came out perfect. Added some chopped jalapeños to mine though since I like it spicy... Stay well and thank you for the service you are doing... Totally appreciated!!
"Yankee cornbread! 😂 😂 😂! That's what my grandma calls it too. She does true southern (Arkansas) and fresh buttermilk! Yum!
Preach it!
"One on one" flavorings has ALOT of flavors a they're not so spendy.
Same here. Like he says, if it's sweet, it's cake. Yuck!
You southerners stick to cornbread. We yankees will handle the pizza and Italian bread. 😀
Crushed pork rinds seem like a crazy ingredient but I recently tried a "carnivore pancake" from seriousketo and they were amazing. I'm definitely going to try these. Thanks for all your hard work!
Thank you! People look at me like I have 2 heads when I say I don't care for sweet cornbread. Good cornbread needs bacon grease and a lot of it!
AtHomeWithMisty Oh my gosh! Big fan and subscriber here! Love your channel. And yes - NO. SWEET. CORNBREAD, plz! Thanks for watching and commenting, Misty! ❤️❤️
Really?!? Oh my word, I'm flattered :) I had to make my low carb biscuit recipe today after watching your battle video! Can you figure out a way to make beans low carb so we can enjoy them with some corn bread and fried potatoes? lol Ugh. carbs. Why are they so good? Keep up the great work :)
Don’t you get me started on beans and cornbread! LOL 😍
Yep, if/when I need a "cheat meal" that's what it is...a bowl of pinto beans and cornbread! LOL
Texas girl here. I love all cornbread. Sweet and savory are both delicious to me. Love your videos!
Ok, so after watching this I ordered the corn extract from Amoretti's site...came out to $20.20 incl. shipping, using the 35% coupon code you get for signing up to their newsletter.
About 6 bucks less than Amazon's total!
CakerBaker 99 Awesome! Let me know what you think about it! 🌽🌽🌽
Subscribed just because you knew cornbred is better when made in a hot cast iron skillet !
You’re awesome! Can’t wait to try those muffins you liked!
Sorry but I am from Texas and everybody I know enjoys sweet cornbread including myself. I also like the unsweetened as well. Love ur video :). April
No beans in your chili AND sugar in your cornbread?? No wonder folks say Texas ain’t part of the South! LOL. (I kid, I kid!) 😜 Thanks for watching and commenting, April!
When I first moved to NYC from Mississippi, I remember being thrilled when i found that the bodega across the street from my workplace had individual servings of cornbread, wrapped and ready to go. I bought one for a snack and, when I bit into it, was horrified.
It was sweet!
GAG!
What was worse, no matter where I went in the city, anyplace that served cornbread served the sweet stuff. Slap a bit of frosting on it with a small candle and it would have been perfect for a birthday party.
I did find one restaurant that made it "Southern Style," after a while, so I was safe.
Me and my dad are from and live in Sneedville tn. And we have to have ours in a cast iron skillet as well. I love that you all do it the same way. Or you and your family. 🥰
You definitely need to try Neisha Berry’s corn bread recipe. I bet using the corn flavoring would put it over the top. Ps her cornbread dressing recipe is great too
I like her recipe too.
I didn’t like her recipe so I’ll try one of these next time.
That flavoring is the bomb, isn’t it? I have one in my pantry and it smells so delicious, and it actually makes low-carb cornbread tastes like cornbread!
By the way, you are the funniest! I crack up when I watch your videos. 😂 This is your third video that I watched and I had to subscribe!
Have you tried other brands of corn extract or just thins one?
Wow, thank you! I made the one from Fluffy chicks as soon as my corn flavor arrived from Amazon and followed the recipe and just added 2 drops of butter extract. Not only did me and hubby love it, our 8 yr old grandson asked for more! Thanks again, you rock. And this Yankee agrees with you, cornbread is NOT sweet! LOL. Have a good holiday season.
That’s great to hear, Annette! Glad it was Grandson Approved! 😜👍❤️
Yay! So glad you liked it!!!
@@HighfalutinLowCarb Thank you for choosing us to test out!
I can't wait to try the third recipe. My husband LOVES cornbread. I love how real and fun you are. Thank you for all your fun informational videos.
Amen brother about the sweet cornbread.. Sugar doesn't belong in cornbread.. Love the video!! I just subscribed and I'm excited to see what is coming!!
+debcar Wooot! Thanks so much!!
My Granny made Cracklin' Bread which was cornbread with cracklin' stirred in. She did cut back on the fat because cracklings are pork rinds but not refined like the snack rinds.
I think I'd do the almond flour recipe with baby corn, corn extract and bacon grease. Good one!
+Shannon Blankenship Yes, ma'am! Thats my next trial! :-)
Doesn't adding corn sort of defeat the low carb diet? I thought corn is a high carb grain and can spike blood sugar? Or is there a way to prevent the spike?
Pam Waldron it’s baby corn in the can so dosent have nearly as many carbs
Yes indeed, I hear you about the cast iron skillet. That's the way my mom and I used to do it.
I agree with you. If it tastes sweet, it is not that good in my opinion.
Born and raised in the South. My granny (93) and my momma (72), both born and raised in the south, make sweet cornbread. To each his own!
I just made corn muffins. I used corn meal, almond flour, stevia,baking powder, coconut oil, egg, salt, one percent milk... they rose up well, hold together well and taste great.
