"I usually use 1% milk - you can use whole, 2%, 1% or probably even skim (haven't tried the skim version myself though). In place of the prepackaged cornbread mix I use: 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal, 1/4 cup white or whole wheat flour, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 tablespoon baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon baking soda. I whisk it together in a bowl and pour the milk over it to combine in step 1 of the recipe...."
