How to Make Skillet Cornbread

Place cast-iron skillet in the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F.

In a small bowl stir together cornmeal, flour, baking powder and salt.

Measure buttermilk in a liquid measuring cup. Stir baking soda into buttermilk and set aside.

In a large mixing bowl mix the oil and sugar together. Mix in the eggs. Add the buttermilk and creamed corn and mix to combine.

Add the butter to the cast iron skillet and allow to melt.

Add the dry ingredients to the mixing bowl and stir just until combined. Gently stir in frozen corn.

Remove the skillet from the oven and swirl the butter around to coat the bottom and sides of the pan.

Pour the batter immediately into the pan, smoothing into an even layer.

Bake for about 27-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with few moist crumbs.

Cut into wedges and serve.
