These tasty little cornbread bites are made with a Martha White Cornbread Mix, crumbled bacon, cheddar cheese and real maple syrup.
Last year I had an amazing opportunity to attend the CMA Awards with my Martha White family. You can read all about my wonderful trip to Nashville HERE. I say family because that's exactly how they make me feel anytime I have the opportunity to hang out with them ♥
Nashville is one of the most beautiful places to visit. Everyone is always so polite and friendly, and there are so many things to do, sites to see and they have most delicious places to eat. I have to say that Nashville has the best comfort food which is no surprise because country music and good comfort food always go hand in hand.
One of my favorite places to eat is at the Loveless Cafe! Oh lordy the biscuits and gravy, fried chicken, ham, fruit salad, cobblers, desserts and more and the staff is so wonderful. Last time I visited the Loveless Cafe I was definitely in hog heaven!

To help celebrate Martha Whites sponsorship, I have a delicious Martha White cornbread recipe to share with y'all! Actually these are mini Bacon Cheddar Cornbread Bites and they're packed full of cooked bacon, cheddar cheese and maple syrup.
These tasty little bites are so delicious and I love the little bit of added sweetness from the cornbread and the maple syrup. This recipe calls for only a handful of ingredients making them a super quick appetizer or snack.
These are the ingredients you'll need: Martha White Cornbread or Corn Muffin Mix (I used sweet yellow), one egg, 2/3 cup milk or buttermilk, cheddar cheese, cooked and crumbled bacon and real maple syrup.
To start, using a large bowl combine the cornbread or corn muffin mix with, milk or buttermilk and one beaten egg. Stir until smooth. Add the cheese, crumbled bacon and maple syrup. Lightly mix to combine.
Fill each muffin cup 2/3 full with cornbread mixture.
Bake at 375 degrees for 10 - 13 minutes or until cooked through and lightly golden brown on top.
