Serving Size: 12

Cooking Time: 50 minutes

Ingredients

• 3 Cups biscuit baking mix
• 0.75 Cup white sugar
• 2.5 Teaspoons (tsp) baking powder
• 1 Cup yellow cornmeal
• 3 Large eggs
• 1.25 Cups whole milk
• 1 Cup unsalted butter, melted
• 2 Cups frozen corn kernels, thawed

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking pan with butter or non-stick spray for easy removal.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the biscuit baking mix, white sugar, baking powder, and yellow cornmeal. Whisk these dry ingredients together until well blended.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the large eggs, whole milk, and melted unsalted butter until the mixture is smooth and creamy. This will ensure even distribution of the wet ingredients.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the cornbread dense.
5. Fold in the thawed corn kernels, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter for bursts of corn flavor in every bite.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The top should be golden brown and slightly crisp.
8. Allow the cornbread to cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm, optionally drizzled with honey or paired with a spicy jelly for a delightful contrast.
