Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 cup (165g) fine cornmeal
  • 1 cup (130g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (235ml) buttermilk
  • ¼ cup (60ml) melted butter or olive oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Place 2 tablespoons butter in a 10 inch cast iron skillet and place in oven to preheat.
  • In a medium bowl combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the buttermilk, oil, eggs, and rosemary. Mix just until combined and no more. Pour into hot skillet. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Don't overbake.

Notes

  1. If you don't have a cast iron skillet lightly grease a 9x9 baking pan instead. Don't preheat the pan in the oven. 
  2. STORAGE: Store completely cooled cornbread in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
  3. FREEZER-FRIENDLY: Freeze completely cooled cornbread wrapped in plastic wrap and placed in a plastic bag for up to 3 months.
