Yield Makes one 8-inch square

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 tablespoons melted butter, plus more for pan
2 1/2 cups yellow cornmeal
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
3 large eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Butter an 8-inch square baking pan, and set aside. Whisk together cornmeal, salt, sugar, and baking powder in a medium bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, and melted butter. Add this mixture to cornmeal mixture, and stir until well combined.
