Southern Skillet Cornbread is my recipe of the day with the blogging group Supper Club Saturday. This is the inaugural event for this group, having reformed out of the two  groups Baking Bloggers  and Multicooker Monday.

For  this  year,  we will be  doing general  recipe  postings on the first and  last Saturdays of the month,  with the  last Saturday being called Potluck Party. So enjoy the recipes and see you again on the 29th for  the next grouping!

Southern Skillet Cornbread
For my  first offering, I wanted to share my recipe for cornbread made without sugar. I know there are camps on either side.

For my preference, what I make mostly depends on mood or  what I serve  it with. With New year ham and beans or black-eyed peas,  I find the  sugarless  Southern style  to be  perfect.
