Servings: 16 squares
Prep Time: 5 min
Cook Time: 33 min
Difficulty: Easy

Ingredients Add to grocery list

1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
1   large Vidalia or other sweet onion, chopped
1   (8 ounce) package cornbread/muffin mix
1   egg, beaten
1/3 cup whole milk
1 cup sour cream
1 cup grated sharp Cheddar, divided
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon dried dill weed

Directions

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Spray an 8-inch square baking pan with vegetable oil cooking spray. 

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and saute the onion until tender, but not browned, for about 3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and add the muffin mix, egg, milk, sour cream, 1/2 cup of the cheese, the salt, and dill weed. Stir to combine. Pour into the prepared pan and top with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Bake for 30 minutes, until set and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cornbread comes out clean. Allow to cool slightly before cutting into squares.

You said large onion, well I used a really large onion and it was mushy. Evidently way too much onion. Had to eat with fork. I still liked, husband hated.

We have a card party every week and I served this with some homemade chili. They ate all the corn bread and wanted to know if I could make some more right now. Needless to say tomorrow is our weekly card party and guess what I am bringing, your right Vidalia onion corn bread. It is the best.

@Gail William-Sonoma makes a gluten free flour called Cup 4 Cup, it's great stuff you should try it out. Good luck!

But most cornbread mixes have flour in them. How can I adapt this to a flourless cornbread for my gluten-free spouse? Hmm. It sounds so good! Mixes have the cornmeal and the leavening. What if I use a cup and a half of cornmeal and some baking powder and soda (the dry ingredients for my all corn cornbread)? I'll try it...

This is one of the best cornbread recipes I've ever tried. Adding the dillweed is pure genius, Paula!

Delicious. A pan of this and a stick of butter and I wouldn't need anything else!
