Ingredients

How to make it

  • Preheat oven to 450°. Place oil in a 9” cast-iron skillet or similar sized glass baking dish and transfer to the preheating oven.
  • Mix cornmeal, balking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Add egg and milk; stir until just combined. Remove the pan from the oven and swirl the oil to coat the bottom and a little up the sides. Very carefully pour the excess hot oil into the cornmeal mixture; stir until just combined. Pour the batter into the hot pan.
  • Bake until the bread is firm in the middle and lightly golden, about 20 minutes. Let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm.
  • To make ahead: The cornbread can be made up to 3 hours in advance. Reheat, wrapped in foil, in a warm oven.
