Ingredients
- 2/3 cup Butter & 1 tbsp.
- 3/4 cup Sugar
- 3 Eggs
- 1 2/3 cup Milk
- 2 cup All Purpose Flour
- 1 1/3 cup Cornmeal
- 4 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
- 1/2 tsp Salt
Instructions
- Start by preheating your oven to a toasty 400°F. Pro tip: if you're using a cast iron skillet, throw that in the oven to heat up—it gives those crispy edges we all love.
- Now, let's get our ingredients in order. Room temperature butter, a bit of sugar (not too sweet, trust me), and crack those eggs. Whisk it all up until it's creamy.
- Next, pour in the milk gradually. Don't worry if it looks a bit lumpy; the dry ingredients will sort that out. Now, let's talk dry mix: flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Whisk until combined.
- Fold in the dry ingredients to the wet until you've got a smooth batter.
- Drop a tablespoon of butter in there, let it melt, and then pour in your cornbread mix. This combo is the secret to those crispy edges.
- Pop it in the oven for 25-30 minutes. You'll know it's ready when the edges are golden brown. Trust me, you'll be tempted to add more butter, but resist—it's all about that drying out process for the dressing.
- And there you have it, a simple, crispy-edged, and moist cornbread ready to steal the show in your next cornbread dressing!
