Ingredients

  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 ½ cups Cornmeal
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar
  • ¾ tsp Baking Powder
  • ¼ tsp Baking Soda
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 stick Butter
  • 4 Eggs well beaten
  • 1 Tbsp Vegetable Oil
  • 1 cup Milk add gradually, as needed

Instructions

  • Preheat Oven: Heat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a pan or muffin tins.
  • Mix Dry Ingredients: Combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
  • Add Wet Ingredients: Melt butter. Mix with eggs, vegetable oil, and milk. Add to dry ingredients.
  • Combine: Stir until the batter is the consistency of pancake batter. Use just enough milk to achieve this texture.
  • Bake: Pour batter into the prepared pan or muffin tins. Bake for 15–25 minutes. If baking at 350°F (175°C), cook for 30–40 minutes. Check halfway through baking to ensure even cooking.

Notes

For a crusty bottom, use an iron skillet.
For a crustier top, increase the oven temperature to 400°F.
