This tortilla soup recipe and cousin’s cornbread recipe holds a lot of nostalgia for me. It is sweet memories of growing up with great girlfriends. Now it is a frequent request at dinner parties. I like to serve this Tortilla Soup with Cousin’s cornbread, a present find and the best cornbread you will ever taste. My son calls it corn-“cake”, and he is justified in doing so as it is sweet, moist, and DIVINE.
Can Cornbread Be Baked as Muffins?
Cornbread can be baked in a skillet, a cake pan, a loaf pan, or in muffin tins.
Can Cornbread Be Frozen?
To freeze corn bread, wrap it tightly with aluminum foil or plastic freezer wrap, or place in heavy-duty freezer bag.
Cornbread can be frozen for up to 3 months.
Why Does Cornbread Fall Apart?
Cornbread should be a little crumbly.
To keep it from falling apart altogether, use more flour.
Too much corn meal and not enough flour doesn’t give cornbread enough gluten to hold it together.

Cousin's Cornbread, is making me hungry right NOW! Oh and so simple.
Gotta try it. This makes me want to cook cornbread again. I haven't do that in a while.
