How to cook deliciously - Upside Down French Onion Cornbread

1. Stage

Heat oven to 400°. Melt 3 tablespoons butter in microwave and set aside to cool slightly.

2. Stage

In an 8" or 9" skillet over medium heat, melt remaining tablespoon butter. Add olive oil, then place onion rounds in skillet in an even layer. Season with salt and let cook, undisturbed, for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the undersides of the onions are golden. Flip onion rounds, season again with salt, and remove from heat.

Make cornbread: a large bowl whisk together cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pepper.

In a medium bowl, whisk to combine milk, eggs, and melted butter. Make a well in dry ingredients, then pour wet mixture into the center and fold until just combined. Add gruyere and thyme and fold until incorporated evenly.

5. Stage

Pour cornbread batter into skillet with onions and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool 20 minutes, then carefully flip cornbread onto a large plate.
