Best Moist Cornbread Recipe Tips
Why does my cornbread crumble?
Cornbread is naturally crumbly but if yours is more crumby than usual and feels like you’re eating sand, you may need a higher flour to cornmeal ratio to hold it together. But, if you followed this recipe, you should be fine. 😉
Can you over mix cornbread?
Yes, overmixing cornbread batter can lead to a tougher and denser texture. When mixing cornbread batter, stir just to combine the ingredients until they are just incorporated. Once the wet and dry ingredients are mixed and no large pockets of dry ingredients remain, it’s best to stop mixing.
How do I make sure my cornbread is moist?
Overmixing can lead to tough cornbread. Mix until the ingredients are just combined to avoid this. Also, be careful not to overbake the cornbread. Check for doneness a few minutes before the recommended time by inserting a toothpick in the center—if it comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs, it’s ready.
