Tips:
- Freshly ground cornmeal yields the best flavor and texture, but store-bought cornmeal can also be used.
- To prevent the butter or oil from splattering, add it to the skillet once it is hot but not smoking.
- Do not overmix the batter, as this will result in a dense cornbread.
- For a crispy crust, cook the cornbread in a preheated skillet over medium-high heat.
- If you are using a cast-iron skillet, season it before using it to prevent the cornbread from sticking.
- Serve the cornbread warm with honey, butter, or your favorite toppings.
