Adding peanut butter to your cornbread might not be something you’ve considered before, but we highly encourage you to try it.

It also keeps the cornbread from being one note, and really amplifies the overall flavor without being overpowering. Trust us, this cornbread has just a slight sweetness to it, but is still great served alongside a bowl of homemade chili or a pile of fried chicken.
