Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup of butter
  • 1 cup of white or yellow cornmeal (i use fresh ground)
  • 4 tsp of baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp of salt
  • 1 cup of milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup of vegetable or olive oil

Directions:

  1. (Preheat oven to 425F.)
  2. Place the butter into a 10-inch heavy bottom ovenproof frying pan or cast iron skillet and heat in the oven until butter is melted.
  3. NOTE- Heating the butter in the skillet until it's hot and melted before adding the batter, guarantees a desirable CRISPNESS on the outer edges of the bread.
  4. While the pan is heating and the butter is melting, prepare your cornbread batter.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, buttermilk and egg until well blended- wire whisk if possible.
  6. Pour batter into the HOT and buttery skillet (batter will sizzle), return to the oven and bake for 20 - 25 minutes until bread is golden brown and a toothpick or cake tester inserted into the center will come out clean.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack for approximately 5 minutes.
  8. Invert cornbread onto a large plate and cut into wedges.
  9. Makes 6 - 8 cornbread wedges.
