Cornbread is a quick bread made with cornmeal, popular in the cuisine of the Southern United States and rooted in Native American cuisine. The Hidatsa people of the Upper Midwest call baked cornbread naktsi, the Choctaw people of the Southeast call it bvnaha, and the Cherokee and Seneca enrich the basic batter with chestnuts, sunflower seeds, apples, or berries. Modern versions are usually leavened with baking powder.
