Buttermilk Cornbread
First things first, let’s feast our eyes on this mouthwatering delight. Just look at this beauty!
Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to whip up this fluffy goodness:
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 1/4 cup melted butter
Instructions
Now that you have your ingredients ready, let’s get this party started!
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Remember, getting it hot and toasty is key!
- In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar until well combined. It should look like a little yellow and white party in there!
- In another bowl, beat the egg, then add the buttermilk and melted butter. Give it a whisk like you mean it!
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir just until combined. Don’t overdo it, or you’ll end up with tough cornbread! A few lumps are totally fine. Embrace the lumps!
- Grease an 8-inch square baking dish and pour your cornbread batter into it. Spread it out nice and even; you want it to bake like a pro!
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the edges are slightly golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean from the center. Go ahead, do the toothpick test! It’s highly scientific.
- Let it cool for a few minutes, then slice up that golden goodness. Serve it warm with a dollop of butter or a drizzle of honey if you’re feeling extra fancy!
Enjoy this delightful Buttermilk Cornbread that is sure to bring smiles and satisfied stomachs to your table. Happy baking!
