Remove from the oven and let cool in the baking dish for 10 minutes before slicing and serving warm. (10 minutes)
For an extra layer of flavor, consider sautéing the chopped onion in a bit of butter until softened before adding it to the batter.
Squeezing the excess moisture from the thawed broccoli is crucial to prevent a soggy cornbread.
Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack, for a unique twist.
Leftover cornbread can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat gently before serving.
