SERVINGS

1 10" skillet

1 package Krusteaz® Southern Cornbread Mix

1 Large Vidalia (or other sweet) onion, peeled and sliced into ¼-inch thick rounds (rings intact)

2 tbsp Vegetable oil or butter

1 cup Milk

⅓ cup Butter, melted

2 Eggs

STEP 1

Heat oven to 375°F.

STEP 2

In 10-inch cast iron skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil or butter over medium heat. Gently place onion slices in skillet close together in a single layer. If all rings do not fit, remove outside rings until small enough to fit. Cook 6-8 minutes without stirring, until onions soften but don’t fall apart. Remove from heat, leaving onions in skillet.

STEP 3

Whisk together milk, butter, and eggs. Add cornbread mix and stir until blended.

STEP 4

Spoon batter into skillet on top of onions, being careful to keep onions evenly arranged in skillet.

STEP 5

Bake 20-22 minutes or until light golden brown.

STEP 6

Run knife around edges of cornbread to loosen. Let cornbread cool in skillet for 10 minutes.

STEP 7

Place plate or sheet pan upside down on top of skillet and carefully flip so cornbread drops onto plate/pan.

Brush the flipped cornbread with 1 tablespoon melted butter if desired.

Try adding crumbled bacon to cornbread batter before baking. You can cook the bacon in the skillet and use the bacon grease in place of oil to cook the onions.

Try adding different herbs, seasoning or cheeses to cornbread batter.
