Ingredients
  

  • 1 Cup flour all-purpose
  • 1 Cup cornmeal
  • 2 tablespoon buttermilk powder optional
  • 1 ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ Teaspoon baking soda
  • 4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 Cup milk or buttermilk if you do not have buttermilk powder
  • ¼ Cup oil
  • 1 Large egg

Instructions
 

  • Start with preheating your oven to 425°F. Take a cast iron pan and pour in 2 tablespoons of oil.  Place in the oven.
  • While your pan is heating up, in a large mixing bowl, mix together the flour, cornmeal, buttermilk powder, salt, baking soda and baking powder.
    In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, oil and egg. Now add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until the wet ingredients are fully incorporated. Do not over mix.
  • Now carefully grab your pan out of the oven and pour the cornbread mixture into to the pan. Using a rubber spatula, smooth out the cornbread and put it back in the oven. Bake for approximately 25 minutes or until the cornbread is a nice golden brown.
  • This is totally optional, but I like to take about 1 tablespoon of butter and rub it all over the top of the cornbread while it is still hot, just to add a little flavor. Enjoy
