Thank you! I really like cornbread and cooking in the microwave is better to do in this heat. I have made other foods that way this summer. Keeping it cooler!!!
It tasted good. Usually cornbread recipes use more meal than flour. Is there a particular reason why more flour was used? I did use 1 teaspoon of sugar like conventional oven-baked cornbread instead of 1/4 cup. Another recipe just like this on the website actually says 23 minutes instead of 2-3 like yours. And instead of 1/4 cup of vegetable oil, I used 3Tbsp. because in a conventional oven using this much oil made the cornbread too oily for me. Thank you for submitting your recipe. A blessed life to you.

great cornbread out of the microwave, who would've guessed. only gave it a 4 because of course it did'nt brown like it would in an oven but otherwise just as simple as convential method but quicker. will use regularly
