Cottage Cheese Cornbread
Description
Cottage Cheese Cornbread marries the coarse texture of cornmeal with a soft and moist crumb from buttermilk and cottage cheese. The batter blends all-purpose flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda with wet ingredients, producing a balanced rise and sweetness. Adding whole corn kernels adds bursts of sweetness and texture within the bread.
Baked in a preheated skillet with melted butter, the cornbread forms a golden crust while remaining tender inside. It is finished by slicing and serving with additional butter and honey for enhanced flavor. The cornbread’s moistness and crumbly texture make it suitable alongside chili, barbecue, or as a standalone snack.

- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup cornmeal yellow
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder

- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 3 egg large
- 1/4 cup neutral cooking oil generic cooking oil
- 1 cup corn frozen

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. While the oven is preheating, place an oven-safe cast iron skillet in it to heat.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.
