- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) before starting to ensure it's hot enough when you're ready to bake.
- Use a cast iron skillet if you have one, as it can give your cornbread a wonderful crusty edge.
- Mix the dry ingredients and wet ingredients separately before combining them to avoid overmixing, which can make the cornbread denser.
- If you prefer a sweeter cornbread, you can increase the amount of sugar to 1/4 cup (50g).
- Let the cornbread cool in the skillet for a few minutes before slicing to make it easier to handle.
- Feel free to add in extras like chopped jalapeños, shredded cheese, or corn kernels to give your cornbread a unique twist.
Making cornbread from scratch is straightforward and rewarding. By following these steps and tips, you'll have a delicious homemade cornbread that pairs wonderfully with a variety of dishes. Enjoy your warm, golden cornbread fresh out of the oven, and don't be afraid to experiment with additional flavors and ingredients to make it your own. Happy baking!
