I like a savory cornbread with no sugar, and this recipe serves me well. It is meant to be cooked in a cast iron skillet, but I have found, when making it without access to a cast iron skillet, that it works fine in a cake pan, too.

==Ingredients==

===Dry===

* 1 cup yellow cornmeal
* 1 cup all-purpose flour
* 1 tablespoon baking powder
* 1 teaspoon salt
* ¼ teaspoon baking soda

===Wet===

* 2 cups buttermilk
* 2 large eggs
* ½ cup butter

==Preparation==

* Preheat oven to 425°F.
** If not using a cast iron skillet, heat the cooking pan in the oven.

==Cooking==

# Put dry ingredients in stand mixer bowl and have the mixer begin whisking.
# Whisk together buttermilk and eggs in a separate bowl and pour into dry ingredients in mixer.
# Heat butter.
#* If using a cast iron skillet, heat the skillet over medium-high heat until it just begins to smoke, then add butter and stir until melted.
#* If not using a cast iron skillet, heat the butter in a saucepan.
# Stir melted butter into cornbread batter.
#* If not using a cast iron skillet, spread some of the butter in the cooking pan.
# Bake at 425°F for 30 minutes, until golden and cornbread pulls away from sides.
# Invert onto wire rack.
