Skillet Cornbread
This old-fashioned recipe for skillet cornbread is simple, easy, and produces a delicious cornbread that has a perfectly buttery crust on the bottom.
Ingredients:
- ½ stick butter
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups cornmeal
- 1 large egg
- 1 ½ cup milk
- 10-inch cast iron skillet
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Place butter in the skillet, and place the skillet in the preheated oven, keeping it in there until the butter is melted.
- In a mixing bowl, mix flour, cornmeal, egg, and milk. Pour in melted butter, and stir until combined.
- Pour batter into skillet, and return skillet to oven. Bake for around 35 minutes, or until cornbread is fully cooked in the middle, and the top is golden in color.
- Serve warm and enjoy!

Thanks for the recipe. So simple. Just made it to go with pulled pork.
that looks good. thanks fot the recipe.
Add a 1/4 cup of cane sugar.
I agree, add sugar. Probably more like 1/2 cup. Plus baking powder (5 tsp?), some salt (1/2 tsp – 1 tsp), and it would be better. Very healthy as it is, but too bland. Could always add some green chilis or something else to spruce it up as well.
I Like to add Chocolate Chips and Peanut butter
