Description

Traditional, southern buttermilk cornbread. Perfect to go along with soups, stews, chili, or pretty much any other meal.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 2 2/3 cups buttermilk (or whole milk)
  • 1/2 cup oil or melted shortening, plus 1 Tbsp. for the pan
  • 4 cups self-rising corn meal mix

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F.
  2. Add 1 tablespoon of oil or shortening to a 9×13-inch baking dish. Place the dish in the oven while it preheats so the oil gets hot.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine all of the ingredients and stir until well mixed.
  4. Carefully remove the hot baking dish from the oven. Tilt the pan so the hot oil coats the bottom evenly.
  5. Pour the batter into the hot pan.
  6. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the cornbread is golden brown and cooked through.
