Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2/3 cup cornmeal
2/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, (melted (plus extra for the pan if making skillet cornbread))

1/4 cup oil
2 eggs ((large))

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, mist a 9x13-inch pan with nonstick spray, and line with parchment. (If making skillet cornbread, place about 1 1/2 tablespoons of butter in the pan and allow it to preheat in the oven.)

  • Whisk the melted butter, milk, oil, and eggs together in a large liquid measuring cup.
  • Pour the liquid ingredients into the dry and stir together until combined.
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared pan, and bake for 35 to 45 minutes, or until fluffy and slightly golden around the edges (a toothpick inserted into the thickest part of the cornbread should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs).
  • Cool for about 20 minutes, then cut into slices and serve.

EASY CORNBREAD RECIPE



Easy Cornbread Recipe image

Amazing honey cornbread made with buttermilk and cornmeal.

Provided by Katie Clark

Categories     Bread

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup cornmeal
1/2 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon salt
3 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/3 cup melted butter
1 egg
1 cup buttermilk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees
  • Spray or grease a baking dish (I used 8×11. Could use a pie pan or a cast-iron skillet)
  • Mix wet ingredients in a large bowl.
  • Mix dry ingredients in another bowl.
  • Mix wet into dry
  • Pour into a pan
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes

Tips:

  • Use Fresh Sweet Corn: The fresher the corn, the better the cornbread will taste. If you can, use corn that is in season.
  • Use Buttermilk: Buttermilk adds a tangy flavor to cornbread and helps to make it moist. If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cornbread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake in a Preheated Oven: Preheat your oven to the temperature specified in the recipe before you start baking the cornbread. This will help to ensure that the cornbread cooks evenly.
  • Let the Cornbread Cool Before Serving: Cornbread is best served warm, but it's important to let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help to prevent the cornbread from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Cornbread is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a side dish, a main course, or a snack. With so many different recipes to choose from, there's sure to be a cornbread recipe that everyone will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give cornbread a try.
