Рецепт Roasted Broccoli and Bacon Cornbread
Nothing says lovin' like a delicious piece of Southern American cornbread. There are virtually endless possibilities to diversify the moist and fluffy interior. Jalapenos, fresh corn and caraway seeds are just a few of the ways I've jazzed it up for my family. Cornbread has a rich and colorful history in our heritage, and is a staple among many homes, especially around the Southern belt and below. This recipe is another one of my latest featuring roasted broccoli and bacon, inspired by a recipe a dear friend told me about, from his past.
The bacon is actually cooked ahead of time and chopped before adding to the broccoli that roasts right in the cooking vessel before adding the cake-like batter and baking to golden perfection. I used my Red Copper Square Pan to achieve the gorgeous brown crust. Prep is a cinch and the results are amazing. I used store bought cornbread mix, just because I had some on hand. This recipe is delicious alone, with butter, or served alongside a steaming hot bowl of homemade pinto beans!
