Categories     Corn     Bread     Side

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/4 cups cornmeal
3 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
3 tablespoons bacon grease
2 eggs
1 cup buttermilk

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425° F.
  • Grease a cast iron skillet with bacon grease and place in the oven while it heats.
  • Mix the first four ingredients in a medium mixing bowl. Cut in the fat with your fingers or two knives, mixing well until you have a sandy texture.
  • Combine the eggs and the buttermilk, add to the dry ingredients, and mix to combine well.
  • Pour the mixture into the hot skillet and bake for 20 minutes. Invert onto a plate. I like to serve it upside down with the nice crispy side up like my grandma did!
