GRANDMOTHER'S BUTTERMILK CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8 inch square pan.
• Melt butter in large skillet. Remove from heat and stir in sugar. Quickly add eggs and beat until well blended. Combine buttermilk with baking soda and stir into mixture in pan. Stir in cornmeal, flour, and salt until well blended and few lumps remain. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

BUTTERMILK CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Butter the bottom and sides of an 8-inch square baking pan with some of the butter, then dust with flour and line with parchment paper.
• Combine the flour, cornmeal, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Whisk together the butter, buttermilk, cream, vinegar and eggs in a medium bowl until smooth, then quickly pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and whisk to combine. Quickly pour the batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top and bake until light brown on top, firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, about 30 minutes.
• Transfer the baking pan to a rack and brush the top lightly with more buttermilk. Let cool for 5 minutes, then invert the cornbread onto a cutting board and remove and discard the parchment paper. Flip the cornbread back over again, cut into large squares and serve while warm.

BUTTERMILK CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat cast iron skillet or corn stick mold in a preheated 425 degree oven. In a mixing bowl, combine all ingredients with a wooden spoon, do not over-mix.

BUTTERMILK CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Pour 2 tablespoons of the oil into a well-seasoned 9-inch cast-iron skillet (see Cook's Note) and place over medium-high heat. Pour the cornmeal into a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the cornmeal and add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. With a fork, stir in enough of the buttermilk to make a batter that is thick but can be easily poured into the hot skillet. You may not need all 3 cups.
• Carefully pour the batter into the skillet. The oil will come up around the edges. Use the back of a spoon to smooth this over the top of the batter. Continue to heat on the stovetop for 1 minute, then transfer the skillet to the oven and bake the cornbread until browned on top, about 20 minutes. Immediately turn the cornbread out onto a cooling rack to keep the crust crisp.

DELICIOUS BUTTERMILK CORNBREAD WITH VARIATIONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Grease an 8-inch by 8-inch pan or a muffin tin.
• Sift the salt, baking powder, and baking soda together and combine with the cornmeal.
• Mix the wet ingredients together, then add the dry, stirring just until smooth.
• Turn into the greased pan and bake about 20 to 25 minutes; a little longer if you added vegetables (see below) - or only about 15 minutes for muffins.
• VARIATIONS: Add 1 or even 1 1/2 cups grated raw yellow or green zucchini, for a very moist cornbread - the squash is pretty nearly undetectable, the green very pretty. Or add 1 cup grated carrots, also very pretty. It is not a bad idea to include 2 eggs (reduce the buttermilk to 1 1/2 cups) when adding the vegetables to help the bread cook well.
