LIBBIES SKILLET CORN BREAD

Very old way to make cornbread. I made this. It had a nice crispy bottom because the oil was hot when I put it in pan. I used margarine instead of lard; it was okay. It is lighter than Southern cornbread; the batter is a lot looser than Southern corn bread but don't worry; it comes together great; it is a little moister and sweeter but tastes very good.

SKILLET CORN BREAD

A simple, slightly sweet corn bread made in the versatile cast-iron skillet. Tastes great and is a good base recipe to experiment with. Cast-iron skillets take a little bit of time to warm up. Pre-warming the skillet allows the corn bread to cook evenly.
