Skillet Cornbread

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.

      • Hi Nancy, An update from The Kitchen on the Skillet Cornbread; The recipe was tested and concluded that it tested well. It's not a fancy cornbread, but rather simple and it tested quite moist. Overbaking by just a few minutes could result it a dry crumb. Increasing the honey a bit and serving with a nice honey butter would be the recommendation. Happy baking!

  • To the one that's say flour don't go in cornbread it goes in mine everyone I knew put flour in there corn bread and I am from Alabama even on the cooling shows they put flour in cornbread. Not cake flour just plain selfrising flour. I Love some of these recipes and I will be making and already made some of them.

  • Hey, I love your site, but I need to let you know that true cornbread does not have flour in it, which is why it is called cornbread.
