Classic Buttery Southern Cornbread

🍞 Classic Buttery Southern Cornbread

(Golden, slightly sweet, and perfect with butter or honey!)

Ingredients:

✔ 1 cup yellow cornmeal
✔ 1 cup all-purpose flour
✔ ⅓ cup sugar (optional, but I love a little sweetness!)
✔ 1 tbsp baking powder
✔ ½ tsp salt
✔ 1 cup buttermilk (adds moisture and tang!)
✔ 2 eggs
✔ ½ cup melted butter (plus extra for brushing!)
✔ ½ tsp vanilla extract (trust me, it makes a difference!)

Instructions:

1️⃣ Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease a cast-iron skillet or baking pan.
2️⃣ In a bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
3️⃣ In another bowl, mix buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla.
4️⃣ Combine wet and dry ingredients, stirring until just mixed. Don’t over-mix!
5️⃣ Pour batter into the skillet and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
6️⃣ Brush the top with butter and serve warm. Best with collard greens and a little honey drizzle!
