Blueberry Cornbread

Award Winning Homestyle

Blueberry Cornbread

This homestyle blueberry cornbread recipe is actually award winning!

Ok, it isn’t like we won a $50,000 recipe contest or anything. That would have been nice , but the recognition was just as rewarding.  Voted “Best Blueberry Cornbread” at a local Blueberry Festival, about 500 people and 4 judges were impressed.

My recipe for homestyle blueberry cornbread combines classic, buttery cornbread with sweet wild Maine blueberries and honey. The trick is using the right blueberries.  If you can not find fresh wild blueberries, frozen ones are ok.  There is a significant difference in low bush and high bush blueberries.  The low bush produces the small blueberries that are super flavorful and deep purple in color.  The highbush are usually a lot bigger and lack the traditional blueberry flavor, especially when cooked.

    Your recipe calls for 4 tablespoons of baking powder. Is that correct? Seems a bit much, to put it mildly. I’d really like to try this recipe, but I’d like your input on this. Thanks

      Oh wow ! That would be a bit much, totally a typo – 2 teaspoons. That is SO odd. Not even going to try to figure out how I got 4 tbsp out of 2 tsp!
