Spray a cast iron skillet with non-stick cooking spray and then fill with the batter (about 2/3 full - you may have leftover batter so make some muffins). Bake at 400 degrees for 16 minutes. Rotate after 8 minutes. Test by using a toothpick in the center of the corn bread. Toothpick should come out clean.
