\n- Preheat oven to 400\u00ba. Grease a 12 inch cast iron skillet with the vegetable oil. Place the skillet in the oven for 15 minutes so it gets hot.<\/li>\n
- In a large bowl, whisk the flour, cornmeal, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and sugar.<\/li>\n
- In a small bowl, poor in melted butter, buttermilk, then add the egg and mix it together. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry, using a wooden spoon combine them with about a dozen strokes – you don’t want to over mix.<\/li>\n
- Using an oven mitt, carefully remove skillet from oven. \u00a0Pour the batter into it and return it to the oven. Bake for 20 minutes, checking after 15 – the top should be a golden color.<\/li>\n
- Let cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Place a plate on top of the skillet, and using oven mitts – invert so the cornbread lands on the plate.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
