Stovetop Cornbread Recipe
Directions
  • Measure buttermilk or soured milk into a small bowl. Add egg and beat with a fork. Stir in oil and honey.
  • In another bowl, mix cornmeal, salt and baking soda.
  • Heat skillet, add 2 teaspoons butter or oil and spread to cover bottom and sides of skillet thoroughly.
  • Add cornmeal mixture to milk mixture, stir briefly, and pour into hot skillet. Reduce heat to medium-low and cover. (If skillet has no lid, improvise with foil, a plate, etc.)
  • Check after 6 - 8 minutes. (It may take a few minutes more.) Cornbread has cooked long enough when firm around the edges and center is almost firm. Turn off heat and let stand, covered, for a few minutes. It will continue to cook.
  • Serve warm.
  • TIP: To sour milk, add 1 tablespoon vinegar to 1/2 cup milk and let stand for several minutes.
