Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 0.5 cup creamed corn
- 1 unit large egg
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a 9-inch cast iron skillet in the oven to heat while you prepare the batter.
Step 2
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, kosher salt, and baking soda until well combined.
Step 3
In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, creamed corn, and egg until smooth.
Step 4
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, being careful not to overmix.
Step 5
Carefully remove the hot cast iron skillet from the oven using oven mitts. Add the 2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet and swirl to coat the bottom and sides as it melts.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared skillet, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 8
Allow the cornbread to cool in the skillet for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
