Margis Family Cornbread Recipes

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 400. Put oil in large cast iron skillet (or whatever pan you sub, though cast iron is best) and put in oven to heat up.
• Mix cornmeal, flour, milk, and eggs. Add sour cream (use 1/2 to 3/4 of a cup, the goal is to make the batter creamy but not liquid).
• Take skillet out of oven and pour heated oil into your batter, stirring to combine well. You want a consistency that is easily poured/spooned into the pan. When oven is heated put in oven and cook for around 30 minutes or until the top is golden brown. When done cover the top with a plate and flip over; it should unmold without sticking to the pan.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Pour the oil into a 10-inch cast-iron skillet and place in the oven to heat while the oven is preheating.
• In a medium bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. In a separate bowl, combine the eggs, buttermilk and butter. Add the liquid to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
• Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven and pour the batter into it. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until golden brown. Serve warm.
