Sour Cream Cornbread

Sour Cream Cornbread is a moist, tender quick bread combining sour cream, creamed corn, and a blend of cornmeal and flour for texture. It bakes to a golden crust with a soft interior and slight sweetness from sugar. The recipe’s inclusion of sour cream enriches the crumb while maintaining a balanced density, making it suitable as a side or snack.

Description

This cornbread recipe combines canola oil, sour cream, and creamed corn for moisture and tang, mixing in cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt for structure and sweetness. Eggs bind the ingredients together, resulting in a batter baked in a cast iron skillet or baking pan at 375°F.

The baking time yields a light crust and tender insides, while the creamed corn adds subtle texture and sweetness. The sour cream not only adds moisture but also contributes a slight tanginess that balances the sweet and savory elements.

Sour Cream Cornbread pairs well with soups, chili, or as a standalone snack. The recipe allows for variations such as making muffins in a greased 12-cup muffin pan baked at higher temperature for a shorter time. Storage recommendations include keeping it at room temperature for a few days or refrigerated longer, with an option to freeze tightly wrapped.
