Sour Cream and Onion Cornbread
Description
This cornbread recipe uses a boxed corn muffin mix combined with milk, sour cream, beaten eggs, and chopped green onions. The butter heats in a cast iron skillet in the oven to create a hot surface before adding the batter, which helps achieve a crisp, golden outer crust. Baking at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 25-30 minutes cooks the batter through while maintaining moistness from sour cream and milk.
The green onions provide a mild savory note that contrasts with the characteristic sweetness of cornbread mixes. The sour cream contributes to tenderness and a subtle tang that deepens the flavor profile. Served warm, the cornbread has a soft, moist interior and a slightly crisp exterior.
This cornbread pairs well with hearty soups, stews, or chili as a side. It can also be enjoyed as a standalone snack. The easy incorporation of prepared mix makes it a convenient recipe that still delivers a flavorful twist with the green onion addition.
