This recipe is for a 15 inch cast iron skillet. Could also be made in two 9x13 pans.


Ingredients:


2 1/2 cups cornmeal

1 1/2 cups flour

1/2 cup sugar

2 teaspoon salt

Method:


Heat the oven to 425 degrees with the skillet inside. Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl. Combine buttermilk and eggs in a measuring cup. Combine with dry ingredients. Fold in melted butter, keeping 4 tablespoons aside for the pan. When the oven is heated, add the reserved 4 tablespoons of butter and swirl it around. Add the batter to the pan.
