How to Make Good Eats Creamed Corn Cornbread Alton Brown

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a 10-inch cast iron skillet in the oven while it preheats.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups cornmeal, 1 teaspoon salt, ⅓ cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1 teaspoon baking soda. Set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups buttermilk, 2 large eggs, and 1 cup creamed corn until well combined.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
If the batter is too thick, add more buttermilk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it pours easily.
Remove the hot cast iron skillet from the oven (use oven mitts!). Add 2 tablespoons canola oil to the skillet and swirl to coat.
Pour the batter into the prepared skillet.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the cornbread is golden brown and springs back when lightly touched.
Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
