This molasses cornbread is slightly sweet, dense, and moist. It's so easy to make with simple to find ingredients. 


This recipe can be traced to Harlem Rennaissance novelist Zora Neale Hurston who was originally from rural Alabama and later spent time in segregated Florida. This cornbread is credited with encouraging her to learn how to walk when she was a baby so that the hogs could not steal her cornbread in her hand.
