How to cook deliciously - Cheesy Skillet Cornbread

1. Stage

Preheat the pan in the oven: Place a 9 or 10-inch cast iron pan in the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F.

2. Stage

Make the batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, sugar, garlic powder, and salt. Add remaining ingredients, and stir until just combined.

3. Stage

Grease the hot pan and add the batter: Carefully remove the hot pan from the oven (remember the handle is hot!). Place a teaspoon of bacon fat in the bottom of the hot pan and swirl it around until it is all melted and coating the bottom of the pan. Pour the batter from the mixing bowl into the pan. Remember to put a pot holder over the hot handle of the pan and return it to the oven.

4. Stage

Bake: Bake at 350°F for 40 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and let the cornbread cool in the pan. Remember that the handle is hot and will stay hot for quite some time. I recommend rubbing an ice cube over the handle to cool it down, just to avoid someone burning their hand if they attempt to move the pan before it has cooled down enough. Did you love the recipe?
