hello and happy saturday! We are back on the brown butter train!!

If you know me, you know I am not really a baker. So just know my whole heart went into perfecting today’s recipe. It’s a slight bit of a project (more so if you make the butter), but I swear it’s worth it. Bring this to your next BBQ and you will absolutely steal the show.

Now, I love a BBQ dinner. But the cornbread? Usually a letdown. Too sweet, too dry, not enough corn… it’s never quite right

So with a fridge full of corn, I figured it was time to take matters into my own hands.

This cornbread is everything I’ve been craving: just the right balance of sweet and savory, loaded with actual corn, deeply flavorful, and somehow both crispy and moist in all the right places.

And the whipped blueberry butter? I can’t get over how beautiful it is. Subtle, unexpected, and the perfect contrast to the cornbread. Plus it looks so impressive.

I hope you love this one as much as I do. ❤️
