Cornbread

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place a 10-inch cast-iron skillet in the oven to heat.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

  3. 3

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and Steen’s cane syrup until fully combined.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

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

  5. 5

    Bake

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

  6. 6

    Prepare Honey Butter

    While the cornbread is baking, mix together 1/2 cup of softened butter with 1/4 cup of honey in a small bowl until smooth.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Once baked, let the cornbread cool slightly, then serve warm with honey butter on the side.
