Grandma Schaffer’s Buttermilk Cornbread Recipe

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Grease the bottom and sides of a cast iron skillet with softened butter.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, and melted butter until even.

Step 3

Pour the liquid into the dry ingredients and use a whisk to combine until smooth. Transfer to the greased skillet.

Step 4

Bake for 25-30 minutes or until firm to the touch, golden brown, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
