Jimmy Red Cornbread

 Jimmy Red Cornbread

Dry ingredients

1 ½ cups Jimmy Red cornmeal

½ cup all purpose flour

1 teaspoon sugar

1 teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons baking powder

½ teaspoon baking soda

Wet ingredients

2 eggs

1 ½ cup buttermilk

3 tablespoons of melted butter

Preheat oven to 400 degrees with a cast iron skillet in the oven to heat also.  Ten minutes before adding cornbread batter to the skillet put the butter in the skillet in the oven.  

Whisk dry ingredients together.  Beat the eggs then combine the eggs with the buttermilk.  Gently stir the wet and dry ingredients together.  

Pull the skillet from the oven and pour the melted butter into the cornbread batter.  Stir gently to combine and then pour the batter back into the hot skillet.

Put the skillet in the oven and bake for 25 minutes.  After removing the cornbread from the oven, immediately invert it onto a plate to maintain the crispy crust.
