AUSTIN TEXAS CORNBREAD (FROM Z' TEJAS) RECIPE - (3.8/5)



Austin Texas Cornbread (from Z' Tejas) Recipe - (3.8/5) image

Provided by mrshermes2002

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups corn meal
1 1/2 cups flour
1/3 cups plus 1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoons baking powder
1 tablespoons baking soda
1 cup yogurt (plain)
1/3 cups plus 1 tablespoon cream corn
1/3 cups plus 1 tablespoon corn (frozen)
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
3 eggs
1/3 cups plus 1 tablespoon butter (melted)
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Mix all dry ingredients together. In a large mixing bowl, whisk all wet ingredients together. Then add dry ingredients to form batter. Spray a cast iron skillet with non-stick cooking spray and then fill with the batter (about 2/3 full - you may have leftover batter so make some muffins). Bake at 400 degrees for 16 minutes. Rotate after 8 minutes. Test by using a toothpick in the center of the corn bread. Toothpick should come out clean.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your cornbread.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cornbread tough.
  • Let the batter rest for a few minutes before baking. This will help the cornmeal absorb the liquid and create a more tender crumb.
  • Bake the cornbread in a hot oven. This will help it rise and develop a crispy crust.
  • Serve the cornbread warm with butter and honey. This is the classic way to enjoy cornbread, and it's delicious!
