    I just substituted light brown sugar for regular sugar (which gave it a slightly richer darker flavor), I skipped the scallions, and I doubled up on the jalapenos. It came out fantastic!!! It really shows that you don't need to buy a pre-package mix to have excellent cornbread. - 4/5/10

    I made my own version of this yesterday. I used the Jiffy mix and it turned out wonderful. Thanks for posting. - 2/26/09
