24 Reviews of Cornbread (Ww Core)

From: erinn in tbay

On Sep 18, 2007

i loved this bread, it is very moist and you can really taste the cornmeal. i have made it twice, the first time i followed the recipe except i used sugar instead of splenda because i don't like the taste of splenda. the second time, i added chopped chives, sundried tomatoes and some grated cheese. i also used a combo of sour cream and buttermilk to make 1 cup as i did not have the yogurt.

    Personally I loved this. I like sweet cornbread and love that this has that element. There are SO many schools of thought when it comes to CORE. Many people warn you off of core+core+core does not = CORE. For me, I use this recipe because it is whole grain and follows the rules as I first learned them. You must be careful that you do not over indulge! If you can do that and just enjoy a piece of this with your soup or chili then you will be fine using this recipe.

    My husband and I just started Core. Was really missing the bread. This was a huge hit and even my 15 year old liked it. I have already made it 2x in the past 3 days. Thanks!

    We liked this very much and it was very easy to make. For Core cornbread it is great. But I do agree with some of the comments that it was a bit Splenda-y for me. Next time I am going to add some thawed frozen corn and chopped jalapenos and cut the Splenda in half and see how it goes. Thanks!

    This is good but a little too sweet for my taste and I found the splenda taste to be too strong. Next time I would use sugar instead of Splenda and reduce the quantity of sweetener. Made for Keep That Resolution: Lite and Low Recipes Event

    I thought this was excellent. I served with Ww 4 Points Vegetarian 2 Bean Chili. I used non-fat buttermilk in place of the yogurt and sour cream. Everything else was the same. For being free, it made a very tasty meal. If I weren't on core, I would probably use a different recipe, but for dieters this works great and with a little honey butter, I'm sure my family would have eaten it up too.

    Sorry! I hate leaving poor reviews and I really wanted to like this recipe cos I'm on the Core plan and I love corn bread, but this SO didn't work for me. The flavour, for me, was just not very nice. It didn't seem to know whether it was sweet or savory - it was almost savory but with the unmistakable Splenda aftertaste. Perhaps my expectations were too high, but I just couldn't eat this again I'm afraid. Perhaps it was the yogurt? Who knows, but 4 of my 6 slices have gone in the bin.

    As the receipt is, I hated it. Too sweet and Splenda aftertaste lingers and lingers. But I left out ALL the Splenda and loved the good, old-fashioned, unsweetened cornbread that was the result.

    I have not tried this recipe but wanted to share a suggestion. First, as a baked good I'm not sure that I would consider this Core. That said, WW is a personal journey and I respect each person's right to decide what's best for them. If you are going to try this, I would suggest letting the cornmeal, yogurt and sour cream sit together in a bowl for 20 minutes before adding in the remaining ingredients. The grain absorbs moisture from that dairy and mellows making a better dish overall.

    I liked how quickly this came together but I was not crazy about the taste. I followed it exactly and I thought it tasted way too much of Splenda. The only way I could eat it was too dollop fat free sour cream on it. Not sure if I'll make it again but if I do I'm definitely going to have to change it to my liking.
