Ingredients

  1. Cooking spray
  2. 1 cup cornmeal
  3. 1 cup all-purpose flour
  4. 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  5. 1 teaspoon baking soda
  6. 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  7. 1 cup buttermilk
  8. 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  9. 2 large eggs

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F; coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Whisk the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Whisk the buttermilk, melted butter and eggs in a medium bowl; add to the cornmeal mixture and whisk until combined.

SO GOOD! The recipe was easy to follow and make in a jiffy!
NO MORE BOXED CORNBREAD MIXES FOR ME.
I picked this recipe because I like breads made with buttermilk and also low in sugar. I used the cornbread as the topping to my tamales pie. Tasted fantastic.
Will definitely be making this from now on.
