Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan or a cast-iron skillet.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Mix well to ensure even distribution of dry ingredients.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, whole milk, and eggs until well combined.
-
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently to combine. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are totally fine.
-
Gently fold in the corn kernels until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan or skillet, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
-
If desired, sprinkle the top of the cornbread with shredded Parmesan cheese for an extra savory kick.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Once baked, remove the cornbread from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
