There used to be a restaurant in Maynard called The Quarterdeck that had THE BEST cornbread. One night our waitress let it drop that they used Trader Joe’s Cornbread box mix and add honey to the batter. The affect of this is that it is more moist and slightly denser…not dry and crumbly. If there is not a Trader Joe’s near you, here’s a link to buy the cornbread mix from Amazon.
