  4. 1/2 cup melted butter
  5. 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Notes

  • Melt your butter by zapping it in the microwave for 30 seconds. Then let it cool before adding it to the eggs.
  • Let your batter sit at room tempurature for 20 minutes before baking. This allows the ingredients to meld and for the cornmeal to fully absorb the milk, butter, and eggs.
  • Baking at a high temp creates the beautiful brown and crispy crust.
  • Grease your pan with butter or oil so that it comes out nice and easy.
  • Use any 9-inch baking dish, but cornbread shines in a cast-iron skillet.
  • Its ready with the top has been browed and a knife comes out clean.
