How to Make Fantabulous Yankee Cornbread
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Grease a 9-inch cast iron skillet with 1-2 tablespoons of shortening (or more, as needed, for complete coverage).
- In a large bowl, sift together the dry ingredients: flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Make a well in the center.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and oil until well combined.
- Gently pour the wet ingredients into the well in the dry ingredients. Stir with a spatula just until the batter is moistened – do not overmix.
- Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
- Carefully pour the batter into the prepared cast iron skillet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The cornbread should be golden brown on top.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
