Cornbread cooked in a cask iron skillet

Instructions

1

Preheat the oven to 425. Cover the bottom of a 9(ish) inch cast iron skillet with vegetable oil. Want to coat the bottom of the skillet, then some. The idea is you're going to fry the batter when your pour it in. If you're using butter instead you add it before your pour the batter in
2

Mix your drys. Corn meal, flour, Baking soda and powder. stir/whisky to combine a little
3

I usually like to get all my wets together before I start pouring. Lightly beat the eggs, measure out the milks, and melt the butter. Then mix it all in Milk, butter milk, melted butter, and 2 eggs.
4

Take out the skillet and carefully pour the batter into the hot oil and spread it around
5

Place it back into the oven and turn it down to 375. Bake for 20-25 mins. Want the top to be lightly brown. Can put a wooden tooth pick in the middle and if it comes out clean you're good to go

Let it cool in the pan for about 10-15 mins, then I usually flip it onto a cutting board or pizza pan so the bottom because the top
