How to Make Granny's Fried Cornbread
- Preheat your griddle or large skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: 1 1/2 cups yellow cornmeal, 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: 1 large egg, 1 cup buttermilk, 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter, and 1/4 cup milk.
- Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined. Don't overmix!
- Drop spoonfuls of batter (about 1/4 cup each) onto the hot griddle, leaving space between each cake.
- Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip carefully when bubbles start to appear on the surface.
- Serve immediately with a pat of butter and enjoy! Consider adding honey or your favorite jam.
