Instructions
- Before beginning to mix the cornbread, put the cast iron skillet in the oven and preheat to 450℉ (232℃).
- In a large bowl, mix the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt together.
- In a smaller bowl, mix the egg, buttermilk and ½ cup melted butter (setting aside the 1 ½ Tbsp from this amount.)
- Take the cast iron pan out of the oven once it comes to temperature.
- Quickly, add the buttermilk mixture to the dry ingredients in the large bowl, and mix well.
- Put the 1 ½ Tbsp of reserved butter in the hot pan and swirl to coat the bottom.
- Pour the cornmeal batter into the cast iron skillet and put into the middle rack of the oven.
- Bake for approximately 17 minutes or until cooked through and starting to brown.
Notes
- Gluten free: exchange gluten free flour on a 1:1 ratio.
