Moist Buttermilk Cornbread
We love cornbread in our house, especially in the Winter months to dip into ground beef chili and potato soup. This homemade cornbread is so fluffy and moist because we’re using buttermilk. Buttermilk is going to provide a softness, while adding body that really takes it next level on the delicious scale. When serving your buttermilk cornbread, add a little butter or honey on top. Yum, it’s perfect! Here’s a video I made to show you how easy this cornbread is to make!
How to make Buttermilk
I practically never have a carton of buttermilk in the refrigerator, so I always make homemade buttermilk. This is much more economical as there’s never any to waste. Here’s how to make it: Add 1 cup of milk into a measuring cup. Add 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Let it sit for 5 minutes. During this 5 minutes it will start to thicken up and make buttermilk! That was easy, don’t you love it?
How to make Cornbread from Scratch
Prepare a 8×8 baking dish by spraying it with nonstick spray. This cornbread comes out of the pan perfectly. In a large bowl you’re going to mix all the ingredients with a hand mixer. It’s important you use melted butter. Don’t have buttermilk? No worries, see up above for my homemade buttermilk recipe. Pour the mixture into your pan and bake for 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool before cutting into it. I like to cut into 12 or 16 squares. I always top with a little butter too! I hope you love this moist buttermilk cornbread as much as my family does! Enjoy!
