    This past Saturday, our church had a bazaar. I was asked to bake some cakes and fix some broccoli cornbread.

    What you need

    Well, it had been ages since I had made some broccoli cornbread. I don't know why I stopped making it because it is so darn good. So I decided that some of you may like the recipe because you may have forgotten how good it is, too.

    How to make

    Now get out a large mixing bowl when you get ready to make this cornbread.

    Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and spray a 9x13 baking pan with cooking spray.

    Mix together the beaten eggs and the sour cream until creamy. Add ½ stick of melted butter to that mixture.

    Add the box of Jiffy cornbread mix to that mixture.

    Enjoy looking at fall decoration in the kitchen window while the cornbread is baking. The little orange thing is actually something that we have growing in the garden. It's called Pumpkin on a Stick. Don't know much about it. The plant was given to us.

    Take the cornbread out of the oven and let it sit for about 10-15 minutes before cutting and serving.  It is so good served with vegetable soup!

      Hi Jane! My sister introduced me to broccoli cornbread and we love it~ especially with chili! Her version doesn't call for sour cream, I'll have to try adding it. I found cut stems of "pumpkin on a stick" at Trader Joe's last year~ it lasted all long time & dried beautifully!

      Wow Jane! You make cooking look so glamourous--even fun! We learned about your "pumpkin on a stick" plant at our library program last week when Tony Melton (Clemson Ext. Agent) came to speak. It is actually a member of the eggplant family. I guess they are edible as well as decorative. For all your followers--the broccoli bread was delish! I had some at our church bazaar.
