How to make cornbread
Here is a recipe for making cornbread:
Ingredients:
1 cup of cornmeal
1 cup of all-purpose flour
1/4 cup of sugar
2 teaspoons of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 cup of buttermilk
1/4 cup of melted butter
1 large egg
1/4 cup of honey (optional)
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and grease an 8-inch square baking dish or cast iron skillet.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, egg, and honey (if using)
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix, the batter should be lumpy.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish or skillet and smooth out the top with a spatula.
Place the baking dish or skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the cornbread from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
Note: You can add other ingredients like corn kernels, chopped green onions or jalapenos for added flavor. Also, you can add a touch of sugar on top before baking for a crispy crust.
