I'm not a big fan of cornbread but after trying Southern Goods sweet and oh so moist cornbread, I just had to recreate my own version.  So, here it is folks!

Enjoy!


Ingredients
1-cup cornmeal
1-cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup honey
1 tsp. maple syrup (for glazing)
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
3 tbsp. melted butter plus 1 1/2 tbsp for cast iron skillet and for glazing
2 tbsp. vegetable or canola oil
3/4 cup sour cream
3/4 cup buttermilk
2 large eggs, beaten


Instructions
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.  Place 10” cast iron skillet on middle rack in the oven
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder and salt; and whisk all the ingredients together
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons melted butter, vegetable oil, sour cream, buttermilk and beaten eggs
  • Make a well in the dry ingredients and then pour wet ingredients into the well and mix using a hand mixer
  • Remove cast iron from the oven, put 1 tablespoon melted butter in the skillet and swirl to completely coat the inside of the pan.  Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
  • Pour the cornbread batter into the greased cast iron skillet, and bake for 40 minutes or until golden brown
  • In the meantime, combine the remaining ½ tablespoon of melted butter and maple syrup together.  Keep it warm in a small pan over low heat
  • Once the cornbread is done, let it cool for 5 minutes before removing.  Brush the top of the cornbread with the maple butter mixture
