Shouldn't cornbread have sugar in it? Every time I have it, it's nice and sweet. I found this recipe to make it in a waffle iron, and was thinking about trying it this weekend:

* 2 cups of cornmeal (wholegrain)
* Scant ½ cup flour
* ½ tsp baking soda
* 2 tsp salt
* 4 tsp baking powder
* 2 cups buttermilk
* 4 eggs, beaten


Then I noticed it has no sugar... Maybe the buttermilk would give it enough flavor to not miss the sweetness? I can't see why making it in a waffle iron would require no sugar, since waffles are sweet...

I didn't mean it regarding personal taste, honest! I recently met someone who didn't know that waffles and/or pancakes can be sweet. She thought they were 'against the rules'. Left me O.o

Trust me, there's nothing wrong with using a box mix. >.> I make home made waffles, but pancakes? Bisquick!! It's a texture thing for me. :)
