The recipe credit for this Creole Style cornbread goes to You Tube channel Smokin’ & Grillin’ wit AB. I have made some changes to the recipe to make it eggfree. And in place of canned cream style corn, I have made use of fresh corn.
The Creole style cornbread is more moist as compared to regular corn breads. Also, it puts leftover cooked rice to a very good use. Baking cornbread in a cast iron skillet gives the best result. But if you want, you can back it in a regular cake pan.
