Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it's hot enough to bake the cornbread evenly.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Baking Dish

    Grease a 9-inch round or square baking dish with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Mixing the Ingredients

  1. 3

    Combine Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

  2. 4

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vegetable oil until the mixture is smooth.

  3. 5

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Baking

  1. 6

    Pour Batter

    Pour the cornbread batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.

  2. 7

    Bake

    Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Serving

  1. 8

    Cool and Serve

    Remove the cornbread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for a few minutes. Cut into squares or wedges and serve warm.
