A very nice light cornbread. As with the previous reviewer, my bread did stick a little but I had no problem loosening it from the pan undamaged.

    This is the first time I ever used white cornmeal and I really liked it a lot. The change I made to this recipe was adding 2 tablespoons sugar but otherwise followed as directed. Next time I will use more oil as the bread stuck a bit to the pan when I was trying to get it out of the pan - but the bread was wonderful with stew. Thanks for sharing!
