This cornbread recipe has been in the Lodge family for decades and is often made for family meals by former CEO Henry Lodge's wife. While there's no sugar in it to appease those who are in the "no sugar cornbread" camp, the addition of creamed corn brings a hint of sweetness to the savory bread. Plus, the corn and sour cream keep the cornbread moist and prevent it from drying out, making it a cornbread that's just as good leftover as it is fresh.
