Golden Sweet Cornbread image

I've always made cornbread the Martha White way until I found this recipe. My hubby prefers "unsweet" cornbread, but I like it this way, especially when making cornbread salad. No package here - purely homemade! They keys are bacon grease, buttermilk (not sweet milk), and a cast iron skillet! The Southern way!

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 c yellow cornmeal
1 c all purpose flour
2/3 c granulated sugar
1 tsp salt
3 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 large egg
1 c buttermilk
1/3 c canola oil

Steps:

  • 1. Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. Melt 1 T. bacon grease in cast iron skillet on top of stove.
  • 2. In a large bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, salt and baking powder. Stir in the egg, buttermilk and vegetable oil until well combined. Pour batter into warm 9 inch cast iron skillet on low temp on stove top.
  • 3. Watch for bubbles on cornbread (as you would when making pancakes). Once bubbles begin to rise to the top, slip into pre-heated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.
  • 4. Let set on counter for 5 minutes, and then flip skillet over onto plate. Allow cornbread to fall onto plate on it's own. Don't force.
  • 5. Makes 12 small wedges or 6 large. Serve warm with lots of butter!!

This cornbread is a true delight! The golden crust and sweet, moist interior make it a perfect side dish or snack. I especially love the addition of honey and butter, which gives it an extra touch of sweetness and richness.
