Homemade Cornbread Recipe

Homemade Cornbread Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 cup (150g) cornmeal
• 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar (optional, for a sweeter cornbread)
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup (240ml) buttermilk (or substitute: 1 cup milk + 1 tablespoon vinegar or lemon juice)
• 2 large eggs
• 1/4 cup (60ml) melted butter or vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons butter (for greasing the skillet or baking pan)

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place a cast-iron skillet (or an 8×8-inch baking dish) in the oven to heat while you prepare the batter.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients:
   In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar (if using), baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Prepare Wet Ingredients:
   In a separate bowl, whisk the buttermilk and eggs together. Slowly whisk in the melted butter or vegetable oil.
4. Combine Ingredients:
   Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
5. Heat the Skillet:
   Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and add the 2 tablespoons of butter, swirling to coat the bottom and sides.
6. Bake the Cornbread:
   Pour the batter into the hot, greased skillet. Spread it evenly with a spatula. Bake in the oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Cool and Serve:
   Let the cornbread cool for about 5 minutes in the skillet. Slice into wedges or squares and serve warm with butter, honey, or your favorite spread.

Enjoy your delicious homemade cornbread! 😊
