Tips:

  • Use fresh Walla Walla onions for the best flavor. If you can't find Walla Walla onions, you can substitute another sweet onion, such as Vidalia or Maui.
  • Slice the onions thinly so they will cook evenly.
  • Sauté the onions in butter until they are caramelized. This will bring out their natural sweetness and flavor.
  • Use a cast iron skillet for the best results. Cast iron skillets retain heat well, which is important for getting a crispy crust on the cornbread.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F before baking the cornbread. This will help ensure that the cornbread cooks evenly.
  • Let the cornbread cool for a few minutes before inverting it onto a serving plate. This will help prevent the cornbread from breaking.

Conclusion:

This upside-down Walla Walla onion cornbread is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet onions, cornmeal, and cheese is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a new side dish to try, give this cornbread a try. You won't be disappointed!
