Classic Skillet Cornbread is exactly what it sounds like – cornbread but baked in a skillet. This is one of those classic recipes which is so easy to make but tastes so delicious! I love to make this classic cornbread to serve alongside chili con carne or a hearty lentil soup.
I start by heating a skillet in the oven. While it is heating, I mix the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl before adding buttermilk and eggs. I then melt some butter in the skillet which I add to the cornbread mix once it melts. I pour the bread mix into the skillet and bake until golden brown. It’s that simple!
To make Classic Skillet Cornbread, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 450 °F and place a skillet in the oven to heat.
In a large bowl, mix the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together.
Mix the buttermilk and eggs together in a separate bowl.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and mix until just combined
Add the butter to the hot skillet and leave to melt. Once melted, pour it into the bread mix and stir to incorporate.
Place the mixture into the hot skillet, and place it in the oven straight away.
Bake for 18-20 minutes until golden brown. When it is cooked, the edges should come away from the side of the skillet.
Allow to cool slightly and serve alongside a hearty soup or stew.
