For a richer flavor, try using brown butter instead of melted coconut oil. If you prefer a slightly sweeter cornbread, increase the sugar by a tablespoon or two. Add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a subtle kick.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Generously grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with coconut oil or butter. (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a large bowl, combine the milk and cornmeal. Stir well to ensure all the cornmeal is moistened. Allow this mixture to sit and soften for 5 minutes. This step helps create a tender crumb. (5 minutes)
03
StepIn a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. This ensures even distribution of the leavening agent. (3 minutes)
04
StepAdd the cornmeal mixture, beaten eggs, and melted coconut oil to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine. Overmixing can lead to a tough cornbread. (5 minutes)
05
StepPour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading evenly. (2 minutes)
06
StepBake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the cornbread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. (30-35 minutes)
07
StepLet cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy warm with butter, honey, or your favorite toppings.
