Skillet Cornbread
Prep: 5 min
Bake: 30 min
Yield: 6 to 8 Servings
There's nothing like the crusty, buttery edges of a homemade cornbread when it's baked the old-fashioned way in a cast-iron skillet. Serve hot and buttered as a side with beans and greens, soups and stews and turkey dinners.

Directions
- PREHEAT oven to 375℉.
- GREASE a 10-inch skillet with butter or bacon grease.

- COMBINE egg, buttermilk, melted butter and honey in a separate bowl. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix well. Pour batter into prepared pan.

- REMOVE from oven and let stand for 5 minutes; serve with butter and honey.
