MINI CHEESY CORNBREADS

Steps:

• Place four 6 1/2-inch cast-iron skillets in the oven and preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Whisk the cornmeal, sugar, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Add the Parmesan and Cheddar and toss lightly to mix.
• Whisk the buttermilk, melted butter and eggs in a second bowl. Pour into the cornmeal mixture and mix until just combined.
• Carefully remove the skillets from the oven. Divide the remaining 2 tablespoons butter among the skillets and let it melt. Swirl the skillets to coat them with the butter and divide out the batter. Bake the cornbreads until golden on the edges and a tester inserted in the center comes out clean. 14 to 15 minutes. Let cool on a rack.

INDIVIDUAL SKILLET CORNBREADS

Steps:

• Place four 3 1/2-inch cast-iron skillets in the oven. Preheat to 425˚ F.
• Make the cornbread: In a medium bowl, combine the cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, corn and 1/4 cup oil.
• Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until smooth. Using oven mitts or pot holders, take the hot skillets out of the oven. Divide the remaining 1 tablespoon oil between the skillets, quickly tilting the pans so that the oil coats the bottom and sides. Pour the batter evenly into the skillets. The batter will begin sizzling right away.
• Put the skillets in the oven and bake until the cornbread is golden brown and a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 10 to 13 minutes. Remove the hot skillets from the oven and place on a cooling rack to cool slightly.
• While the cornbread bakes, prepare the cinnamon butter: In a medium bowl, mix the butter, cinnamon, confectioners' sugar and almond or vanilla extract with a rubber spatula. Stir until everything is mixed well and is an even color (no streaks).
• Serve the cornbread hot or warm with a dollop of cinnamon butter.

SKILLET CORNBREAD

Steps:

• HEAT the oven to 450°F. Grease a 10-inch cast-iron skillet with 1 tablespoon of the drippings. Heat the skillet in the oven for about 10 minutes.
• COMBINE the egg, milk, and remaining 3 tablespoons of bacon drippings in a medium mixing bowl.
• STIR in the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, and salt. The batter should be creamy and pourable like pancake batter. If it seems too thick or thickens while the oven and skillet heat, stir in a little water.
• POUR the batter into the hot skillet. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, until the edges look deep golden brown and the top is firm to the touch.
• Corn Cakes
• You can also make corn cakes with this same batter, a popular carrier for a pile of pulled pork. Heat a greased griddle over medium heat. For each corn cake, pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the hot griddle. Flip when the edges are dry and the bottom side is a deep golden brown. The recipe will make about 12.
• Note
• You can substitute 1 1/4 cups self-rising cornmeal mix for the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

CHILI CORNBREAD SKILLET RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
• Make the chili: Heat the olive oil in a 4-quart cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until soft and browned. Add the garlic and jalapeño, and sauté for another minute, until fragrant.
• Add the ground beef and cook for 5-7 minutes, until cooked through and browned. If there is a large amount of excess oil, spoon out of the skillet and discard.
• Stir in the tomato paste, diced tomatoes, kidney beans, chili powder, cumin, cinnamon, oregano, salt, and water, and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the cornbread batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
• In a liquid measuring cup or medium bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and vegetable oil.
• While whisking continuously, slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until everything is moistened.

• Pour the cornbread batter over the chili and cheese, and spread evenly all the way to the edges of the pan.
