Notes

1. You can also bake this cornbread in a 9-inch baking dish. Warm the baking dish up in the oven for 5 minutes then add 1 tablespoon of butter to melt. Add in the batter and bake.
2. Don't overmix the batter, as it can make your cornbread tough.
3. Place the skillet in the center rack of the oven.
4. The skillet cornbread is ready when it is golden brown and an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
