Sweet and Moist Northern-Style Cornbread
"Sweet and cakey Northern-style cornbread with a crisp, Southern-influenced crust. [Photographs: Joshua Bousel] You don't have to give up that crisp, brown, Southern-style crust to enjoy sweet and moist Northern-style cornbread. We tweaked our Northern cornbread recipe until we finally arrived on a version that delivers both, with plenty of golden corn flavor to boot.
