Ingredients

1 ½ cups medium-coarse yellow cornmeal

¾ cups flour

3 ½ tsp baking powder

1 tsp salt

¼ tsp baking soda

¼ cup sugar

2 cups buttermilk

2 large eggs, beaten

½ cup melted butter, plus more for brushing the pan

Directions

Step 1

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Butter the bottom and sides of a 10-inch cast iron skillet and set aside.

Step 2

Mix the first six dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl.

Step 3

Make a well in the center and pour in the buttermilk and eggs. Stir until mixed.

Step 4

Fold in the melted butter and pour the batter into the prepared skillet and smooth the top.

Step 5

Bake until the top is lightly browned and the sides cleanly pull away from the skillet, about 25-30 minutes. Cool completely and serve warm or room temperature.
