Description

My grandmother-in-law’s recipe for cornbread. It’s not too sweet or cake-like. It’s just plain old cornbread goodness.

Ingredients

  • 1-½ cup White Cornmeal
  • ½ cups All-purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • ¼ teaspoons Baking Soda
  • 1 whole Egg
  • 1 cup Buttermilk
  • ¼ cups Cooking Oil

Preparation

Place cooking oil in cast iron skillet. Place skillet in cold oven. Heat oven to 450 degrees.

Mix dry ingredients together. Add egg and buttermilk until the mixture is completely combined.

Take the hot skillet out of the oven and spoon batter into the skillet – spread dough out evenly.

Put the skillet back in the oven and cook for 20 minutes.

Take skillet out of oven and flip cornbread out onto a plate for serving. You can serve it warm or let it cool.

I am from Texas so I don’t understand the concept of sweet cornbread. This is the only cornbread recipe I have ever known and I have never seen the same recipe any where else. The only difference is I use bacon drippings rather than cooking oil. I have made it so many times, I can throw it together in my sleep . And trust me when I say, it is wonderful when its time for Thanksgiving dressing too! It may not be for everybody but if you want good down home cornbread, this is the recipe to try.

From West Tennessee to Canada, I sure do miss cornbread. Most of the folks up here have never had it. Thanks for what looks to be a great recipe, I will try it soon.
