Pillsbury Cornbread Swirls - - I don't think so

Postby OldUsedParts » Sat Feb 12, 2022 1:29 pm

Well, I fixed the tube of Pillsbury Cornbread Swirls at Lunch and "MY PERSONAL OPINION IS"
There was Nothing except the LABEL that resembled CORNBREAD.
It was more of a Muffin that had a Roll/Biscuit Flavor but nothing looked or tasted like Real Cornbread. :whiteflag:
As a matter of fact, I drizzled one of them with Powdered Sugar Icing and sprinkled with Cinnamon and I plan on doing that to the remaining
three for breakfast in the morning.

The baking instructions said to bake at 375
for 14 to 17 minutes and I had to use the full
17 to even get a remote golden brown spot or two.
The inside was like a roll or biscuit also.

It wasn't so much that I didn't like them, they just "aren't" Cornbread the way I have known it all my life.
There's no way that you could take genuine Cornbread Batter, kneed it, roll it out and cut it into strips like that. :dont: :whiteflag:
I plan on making me some good cinnamon Rolls from the last three in the Morning, so we'll see how that goes. :scratch:

Never seen any here, but they look like they'd make a decent lining for the Wafflizer.

I wish someone would also try them and get us a second opinion - - - - The Funny Thing was that they were the ONLY THING IN THE BISCUIT CASE at Brookeshire Bros Grocery. :dont:

OK, I used the last 3 Swirls to create some Cinnamon Rolls with Powdered Sugar Icing.
I ate 2 and I'm saving 1 for the Wife.
As far as my taste goes, they fit better in the Cinnamon Roll endeavor than anything connected with Cornbread. :dont: :whiteflag:

Well, I fixed one for Sherry and she liked it - - - matter of fact she said it was better than the regular Store Bought Cinnamon Rolls :dont:
So I may be buying more later to make into Cinnamon Rolls :scratch: "Who'da Thunk'it" :dont:
