I really love this sweet corn bread. I actually grew with the smell and taste of this delicious bread. My grandma used to make this bread on her outdoor oven and ever since childhood this sweet corn bread turned to be one of my favorite sweet snacks. Even now, after so many years, I still love it.
This bread is sweet, rich and tasty, the caramelized sugar on top makes it worth trying it. Served warm alongside a cup of milk or yogurt makes a great choice for breakfast too, there is no doubt about that.

I decided to make this as soon as I saw the words “caramelized sugar.” Who can beat that?
Wow, this sounds so good! I was surprised to see vanilla on the list of ingredients, but I am willing to give it a try, your photos are mouth watering!
Yum. I’m always searching for the perfect cornbread. Who knew that it would be sweet! Loving the caramelized topping. Congrats on Top 9!
I adore that recipe! i must made! ok, my english dont very good looking ehee… Saludos, Paula desde Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Looks amazing. Is this an original? Totally creative.
That corn bread just looks so yummy. Oh caramelized sugar on the top makes it even more irresistible.
I love corn bread. I love the American style and the sweeter Mexican version called pastel de elote or panque de elote. I like the carmelized topping in your recipe. I think I’ll throw in a few fresh sweet corn kernals too. I really like the recipes you offer and congrats on making Top 9 so often.
Your corn bread looks delicious. I think it’s really easy to sometimes mess up such “basic” recipes, but yours definitely looks like a success!
Caramelized sugar and vanilla! This is obviouisly not my mother’s cornbread.
First time visiting your blog…LOVE it! Really like the layout and design, very classy. Saving to my favs!
I will try it soon… It looks so delicious !
he intentado hacer la receta y me subió mucho pero cuando la saque del horno
se me bajo y quedo muy baja,no se ¿porque pudo ser?
I am not sure I understood well, google translate didn't help too much. If the cake has grown well in the oven and after you took it out reduced, it means it needed more flour, more cornmeal. If the consistency of batter is too runny you may need to add more cornmeal or semolina flour.
Hi,
I made your sweet corn bread yesterday. But, it turned out like a yogurt pudding….not at all like your photos. Sorry to ask you, is the quantity of yogurt correct (500 grs)?
I love your recipes, I’ve already made several, all very good and simple.
regards. Ana
