WHY YOU'LL LOVE THIS RECIPE
This recipe is super easy to make—just mix, pour, and bake. No cast iron required, no fuss.
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. In a large bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
STEP 1: PREHEAT & MIX
STEP 2: MIX WET INGREDIENTS
In another bowl, beat the eggs, then whisk in buttermilk and melted butter until smooth.
STEP 3: COMBINE
Pour the wet mixture into the dry and stir gently until just combined (don’t overmix).
STEP 4: FOLD IN CORN
Add the corn kernels and stir to distribute evenly. You'll want to stir just until the corn is mixed into the batter. Don't overmix.
STEP 5: BAKE
Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan and bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
STEP 6: COOL AND SERVE
Let cool for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with butter or honey on top for added sweetness.
PRO TIPS
- Stir until just combined to keep the texture fluffy
