Marys Corn Bread Recipes

MARY'S CAST IRON SKILLET CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Pour vegetable oil in a cast iron skillet; place in the oven. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Mix cream-style corn, cornmeal, buttermilk, sour cream, yogurt, eggs, salt, and red chile pepper together in a bowl to form batter. Remove skillet from oven using oven mitts; pour in batter.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges pull away from skillet, 30 to 40 minutes. Spread butter over top.

BACON CORNBREAD DUTCH BABY

Steps:

• For the Dutch baby: Cut the bacon slices in half and place into a cold 9- or 10-inch cast-iron skillet. Place into a cold oven. Heat the oven to 425 degrees F. When the oven comes up to temp, set a timer for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, salt, pepper and smoked paprika in a large bowl. Whisk in the milk, eggs, green onion and jalapeño until the batter is smooth.
• When the timer goes off, carefully remove the bacon from the pan and set aside, leaving the bacon fat in the pan. Carefully pour the prepared batter into the pan and bake without opening the oven door, until golden brown and very puffy, 15 to 18 minutes.
• For the garnishes: While the Dutch baby cooks, melt the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the eggs and fry until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny. Reheat the bacon in the pan alongside the eggs.
• Cut the Dutch baby into four, top each piece with some bacon and an egg. Scatter with green onion, cilantro and Cheddar. Serve with hot sauce, salt and pepper.
