Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
5 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup instant nonfat dry milk
1 large egg
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Vegetable oil, for skillet

Steps:

  • Over low heat, heat a 9-inch cast-iron skillet with a cover. Mix flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, cornmeal, and nonfat dry milk in a large bowl.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together egg, 3/4 cup water, and melted butter. Make a well in the center of dry ingredients, and pour the egg mixture into it. Stir until just combined.
  • Brush bottom, sides, and inside of skillet lid with vegetable oil; pour in the batter. Cover, and cook over low heat until top feels almost dry, about 35 minutes (check the bottom occasionally to make sure it's not burning; lower heat if necessary). Invert onto the skillet cover; oil pan bottom again. Slide bread back into pan, and cook 5 minutes more, until dry and light brown. Transfer to a plate, let cool slightly, and cut into wedges.

I love that this recipe uses honey instead of sugar. It gives the cornbread a slightly sweet flavor that I really enjoy.

This cornbread recipe is an absolute keeper! I've tried several skillet cornbread recipes over the years, but this one is by far the best. The texture is perfect - crispy on the outside and moist and tender on the inside. The flavor is also amazing -
