How to Make Okie Cornbread
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Place a 10-inch cast iron skillet in the oven while it preheats.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups cornmeal, 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg and 1 cup milk.
- Remove the hot skillet from the oven (carefully!). Add 1/4 cup bacon grease to the skillet.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the batter into the hot skillet and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
- Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
