Equipment
- 10-inch cast iron skillet
- Whisk or spoon for mixing
- Oven mitts
Ingredients
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- ½ cup unsalted butter melted
- 2 large eggs
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the cast iron skillet in the oven while it preheats.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk or stir well to combine.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, and eggs until well blended.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Remove the hot cast iron skillet from the oven, using oven mitts, and carefully pour the batter into the skillet. Smooth the top with a spatula.
- Place the skillet back in the oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes or until the cornbread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove the skillet from the oven and allow the cornbread to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
