simple and delicious recipe to make it

Ingredients

• 1 cup yellow cornmeal
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1/3 cup melted butter
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for greasing the skillet)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven and Skillet:
   • Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C).
   • Place a 10-inch cast iron skillet inside to heat while you make the batter.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients:
   • In a large bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
3. Mix Wet Ingredients:
   • In another bowl, beat the eggs, buttermilk, and melted butter together.
4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
   • Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients, and pour in the wet ingredients. Stir until just combined; do not overmix.
5. Prepare the Skillet:
   • Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven (using oven mitts). Add the vegetable oil and swirl to coat the bottom and sides of the skillet.
6. Bake:
   • Pour the batter into the hot skillet. Return the skillet to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Serve:
   • Let the cornbread cool slightly before slicing and serving. It’s great with butter, honey, or as a side to your favorite meals.

Enjoy your homemade skillet cornbread! It’s perfect for a comforting, hearty addition to any meal.
