Buttermilk Cornbread tastes so moist with a touch of honey and vanilla, too!
Welcome to another addition of Bread Bakers!
This month, the Bread Bakers are making Good Luck Breads, a theme chosen by Felice from All That’s Left Are The Crumbs.
Good Luck Breads – they could be something that brings good fortune throughout the year (Mardi Gras, New Year, even a housewarming) or shaped as a good luck symbol (pigs, horseshoe, four leaf clover, number etc).
I chose cornbread as my good luck bread. Why cornbread?
Cornbread is considered good luck in parts of the southern United States. Many people eat it as part of their New Yer’s meal for good luck in the coming year.
Its color resembles gold metal. Some people add extra corn kernels, to symbolize golden nuggets.
I love cornbread. I’m more of a fan of the sweet variety. This recipe used sugar and honey. The tang of buttermilk balances it out nicely.
