How to Make Golden Northern Cornbread With Bacon
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease a 9x9x2-inch baking pan.
- In a medium skillet, cook 4 slices of bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove bacon, crumble, and set aside; reserve 2 tablespoons of bacon grease.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups stone-ground cornmeal, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup buttermilk, and 1/2 cup milk.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the well and gently stir until just combined.
- Stir in 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter and the reserved bacon grease.
- Gently fold in the crumbled bacon.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
- Let cool for 5-10 minutes before cutting into squares and serving warm.
