Homemade Corn Bread in a Cast Iron Skillet from Scratch
Homemade Corn Bread made from Danny Corn that I grew in my Deep South Texas Three Sisters Garden this year. I remove the kernels from the cobs, grind the corn in a grist mill, separate out the corn meal and then make fabulous corn bread. Step by step directions to make this homemade bread in a cast iron skillet. Using purchased corn meal is fine. Recipe ingredients below.
