Holiday side dish

My first recipe for this week is the homey and delicious Cornbread. This is full of flavor, and smells amazing while it bakes. Perfect for Thanksgiving dinner, Christmas dinner, or any other fun family event.

I also really like the pretty colors that this Cranberry Rosemary Cornbread has. As the cranberries bake, they split open just a bit to create those deep red pockets of jammy looking goodness. After you pour the batter in the pan, just take a second to make sure the cranberries are fairly evenly distributed around the pan. When I poured my batter into the pan, the berries all ended up at one side, so it’ll help with that pretty presentation to distribute them.

Later in the week

I’ll have another cranberry recipe for you after Thanksgiving. A dessert recipe for Cranberry Cheesecake Dream Bars!

Until then, happy cooking, and happy holidays to you and yours!

    What a beautiful cornbread. It’s perfect for the holidays or anytime. I love cornbread with soup and this would be great with any of them!

    Could dried cranberries be used instead of fresh?

    Bonnie, yes, dried cranberries can be used in cornbread. It changes the recipe, but they can be used.

    Very forgiving recipe. Made a few changes and the cornbread still came out wonderfully, the biggest change was using some pumpkin purée instead of the oil.
