Easy Cornbread

Slightly sweet, moist Southern cornbread baked in a skillet — pouring the batter into a hot, greased skillet straight from the oven is the trick to a properly crisp, golden crust on the bottom.

Ingredients

1.5 cupscornmeal
1.5 cupsbuttermilk
1/2 cupbutter, melted

Instructions

1

Whisk together the cornmeal, buttermilk, egg and melted butter until just combined.

2

A few lumps are fine, overmixing makes the cornbread tough.

3

Heat a well-greased skillet in the oven until properly hot, then carefully pour in the batter, it should sizzle audibly as it hits the pan.

4

Bake at 220C for 20-22 minutes until deeply golden and a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean. Rest a few minutes before slicing.
