A normal loaf of cornbread with a candy and salty topping of caramelized onions and bacon objects.
This was a form of final minute concepts that popped into my head the choice night time, merely needing to be made to accompany one completely different recipe I had deliberate. It was crucial. I had visions of a splendidly overestimated loaf of cornbread with scattered caramelized onions and bacon objects all by one of the best crust. Clearly this didn’t present as most interesting as I wanted however I wouldn’t establish this a fail every. It’s imperfectly good.
This recipe meant making caramelized onions for the primary time ever, and making my dwelling odor unimaginable from late Saturday night time into Sunday morning. Severely unimaginable… and I don’t even like caramelized onions. I know. However it actually was in my imaginative and prescient so I merely went with it. Plus, the Mr was up for it and I used to be actually cooking these few recipes for his enjoyment. It’s good attending to check stuff out on one different explicit particular person sometimes.
On one completely different keep in mind… I can’t cease spelling caramelized unsuitable. I’m a sort of people that says ‘carmle/carmel’ not ‘caramel’ because of it’s spelled. In order that second ‘a’ retains messing me up. Potato … potahto… regardless of. Oh and don’t concern, I don’t spell potato like that ever open air of merely then. Merely to be clear.
So this bread, it was based mostly off of an already practically good cornbread recipe that I made a decision to adapt barely turning it correct proper right into a loaf, topping it off with deep darkish caramelized (yup did it as quickly as further) onions and salty bacon objects… then I took it a step further and tossed a bunch of bacon into the combo. On account of bacon on one of the best clearly wouldn’t be ample however concern not, this recipe solely requires 3 slices of bacon… solely. Nonetheless be joyful so as in order so as to add additional in case you actually need.
