Golden Cornbread
This classic golden cornbread delivers a tender crumb and a gentle hint of sweetness. The simple batter comes together quickly in just a few bowls. It bakes into a comforting side dish that pairs perfectly with hearty chili, soups, or stews. Serve it warm right out of the oven for a cozy addition to any weeknight dinner.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup cornmeal
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- ⅔ cup milk
- 4 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
- 1 large egg
Instructions
- 1Heat the oven to 425°F and grease an 8-inch square baking pan.
- 2Whisk the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl. Beat the milk, melted butter, and egg in a separate small bowl until fully combined.
- 3Pour the wet egg mixture into the dry flour mixture. Stir everything together just until the flour is moistened, leaving the batter slightly lumpy.
- 4Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it into an even layer. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the top turns golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Slice the baked cornbread into nine squares.
