This is my own original recipe and it turned out very good indeed. It is a moist, coarse textured , cake like cornbread, excellent warm as well as room temperature. One can taste the strawberries even better when served at room temperature. Read more . I served it with my vegetarian chili but it would be great accompaniment with any meal. Enjoy! Ingredients:
6-8 large strawberries, cleaned and hulled |
