Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, and melted butter.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared pan.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Notes
- Buttermilk substitute: Buttermilk adds flavor as well as helps this cornbread recipe rise nicely. If you don't have buttermilk, place 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar in a 1 cup measuring cup. Fill to 1 cup with milk and stir. Let rest 5 minutes and use in place of buttermilk.
- Optional Additions: Add 1 cup corn kernels, 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, or 1 finely diced jalapeno pepper to the batter before baking.
- Cornbread is great served with honey butter or for dipping into soups, stew, or chili.
