And of course, I’m sharing my brand new Blueberry Cornbread!

There’s a grocery store here that make the most incredible blueberry cornbread, so I set out to recreate it.

  I like to use fresh berries for this, but frozen will work just as well.

Of course, you’ve got to have Martha White self-rising cornmeal!

To start, preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly spray an 8×8-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.  In a medium bowl, whisk your dry ingredients together.

In another bowl, mix the eggs, milk, and vanilla together.  Then combined the two and add the melted butter.  Mix well.  Then fold in the blueberries.

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 35 to 40 minutes to until set and golden brown.

I love this stuff warm for breakfast or even with a scoop of ice cream for dessert!

If you get a chance to join us for the Cornbread Festival, be sure to say hello!  I’d love to hug your neck!
