Cornbread Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the Skillet

    Preheat your cast iron skillet in the oven at 425°F (220°C) for about 10-15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. Whisk until well combined.

  3. 3

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and melted butter until smooth.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.

  5. 5

    Bake the Cornbread

    Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven and pour the batter into the skillet. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, and serve warm with butter and honey.
