  Cheddar cheese cornbread with broccoli florets baked right inside!! Oh how nice! Have it on the side of some warm and hearty chili or with some slow roasted turkey with gravy and mashed potatoes. Yum!

 Making cornbread muffins with sour cream keeps them moist and adds a slightly different tangy taste to the cakes and are best served warm.

  1. I love this idea- thank you for posting the recipe. The broccoli florets look pretty cute tucked in there :-) Our farm family owners appreciate the Cabot mention!
