Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 9x9 inch baking pan or a 10-inch cast iron skillet.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, and eggs.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan or skillet.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Notes

For a sweeter cornbread, add an extra tablespoon of sugar. A cast iron skillet is ideal for a crispy crust, preheated with a little oil. Serve warm for the best experience.
