skillet corn bread

Pan-fried corn loaf

Skillet corn bread is cornbread baked in a cast-iron skillet rather than a conventional baking pan.

The skillet is typically preheated with butter or fat, creating a crispy, golden crust on the bottom and edges while the interior stays moist.

The method is traditional in Southern American cooking: Nothing beats skillet corn bread straight from the oven.
