Cornbread

This a great recipe for southern American cornbread. I had this countless times growing up, and still make it this way for stews and hearty soups. Best when baked in a well-seasoned cast iron pan that is hot enough to sizzle when the batter is poured in. Thanks for posting the recipe.

That sounds really good. My Dad was really good at cornbread, I have a little game at it. Glad you don't list sugar. My Dad always said cornbread with sugar isn't cornbread, it's cake.

Kudos to your Dad. Sugar in cornbread is wrong. Just wrong.

This is a perfect recipe for cornbread. I have only one suggestion.. Use a cast iron skillet if you can it's the best for cornbread. For small batches use the small it feeds 4-6 people easy.
I love to make Cornbread. I use my cornbread to make my Dressing. I learned from my Grandmother who was an amazing cook.
Southern Cornbread
Self raising Corn Meal- 3 to 4 cups (I use Martha White)
Flour self raising - 1 cup (I use Martha White)
2 Eggs
2 to 3 cups of whole milk - I eyeball it. Make sure you mix it in first start with 2 cups but you want it to be wet. So really depends on how much cornmeal.
1 tablespoon of oil.
Mix it all together. Then place it in a skillet or a glass pan. Cook in the oven for 45 minutes on 350. The way to tell when it is done put a fork in the center of it. If it is done you will not have any undone cornbread sticking to the fork. If you do put it back on for 10 minutes and then repeat if necessary. Good luck!
