Skillet Cornbread Recipe

Preheat Oven

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and place a 10-inch cast iron skillet inside to heat up.

Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together the Jimmy Red cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Combine Wet Ingredients

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

Combine Mixtures

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

Prepare Skillet

Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven and add a tablespoon of butter to coat the bottom.

Bake

Pour the cornbread batter into the hot skillet. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Make Honey Butter

While the cornbread is baking, mix the softened butter and honey in a small bowl until well combined.

Serve

Once baked, let the cornbread cool slightly, then cut into wedges and serve warm with honey butter.
