If it's a "sweet" cornbread, I'd recommend you try "Jiffy" cornbread mix from your supermarket. It's the best cornbread I've ever had.

when my husband and i were there last, we couldn't stop eating it. best corn bread ever. i tried to recreate it but just not the same.

I asked the Chef for it tonight, he said he didn't have it typed up. I will ask the food and beverage secretary who is in charge of mailing receipe requests tomorrow if I see her.

Thanks for the efforts Suzanne. You will make a lot of cornbread lovers happy when you score the recipe.

Have a great day!

Thanks so much. Do you think we should email the food and beverage secretary ourselves? Maybe that would help???


Also, I did email the Orlando Sentinal newspaper food editor. I noticed they have a web page with some of the Disney recipes and she email me back saying that Disney was sending it to her and she would email me back with it as soon as she got it.

I'll post when she does!

That cornbread would be delicious with some "Little Nutty Chicken Salad". I asked for that recipe last May but never received it. The Chef was very nice though and came to the table.

 

[Rebecca12345]

umm my mouth is watering just waiting to try it!

 

[suzannews]

Here's what I got today:


Corn Bread-Disney's Fort Wilderness and Disney's Wilderness Lodge

1/2 lb cornmeal
12 oz granulated sugar
1/2 oz salt
1 oz baking powder
1 lb all purpose flour
1/4 cup salad oil
1/4 eggs beaten
1 pint milk

Place all dry ingredients in mixing bowl and mix slowly for one minute. Blend milk, eggs and oil together. Slowly add to dry ingredients while on slow speed. Don't over mix, only mix to incorporate product. Spray pan with a food release oil spray or line bottom of the pan with parchment paper. Pour batter into pan and bake at 350 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes or until bread is firm and golden brown.

We use commercial sheet pans, however for this amount a normal cookie sheet with 1/2 inch sides can be used or round cake pans.




Hope this helps!! Happy cooking everyone.

Thank you for posting the recipe, Suzanne! Would you be able to clarify something though...what is 1/4 eggs beaten? Is this 1/4 cup of beaten eggs...or should it have read a certain number of eggs?

Thanks again!

Sorry....it's 1/4 cup eggs beaten. I posted it after a long night at work!

Thanks so much as I am a Cornbread Freak. My GD, Emily, tells me her friends told her you have a chocolate cake to die for. We are there(WL) the 7th, so will be in to try them both.

Another thought for you fellow Corn Bread Lovers.
If you have eaten in Craker Barrel, I was able to talk to one of their Baker Chefs. They use cast iron muffin pans. I bought on at Old Time Pottery and use Jiffy Corn Bread Mix and it is as close in taste as their's. Make sure you season the cast iron.
