PA'S OLD-FASHIONED JOHNNY CAKE / CORNBREAD
The plain version was a staple during my dad's Depression-years childhood; but we rarely had it when I was growing up. My children expect this at least once a month as a regular feature on our Saturday morning breakfast menu OR when we have breakfast-for-supper. Prepare the optional sausage and hard-boiled eggs ahead of time, and it goes together quicker-n-anything!

Yield 8 to 10 servings
Number Of Ingredients 11
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar along with the cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon salt, then cook, stirring, until the sugar is melted and begins to bubble, about 10 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and let it cool slightly.
- Arrange the peaches in the bottom of the skillet, fanning out in a circular pattern. Set aside.
- Whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or using a hand mixer, beat the remaining 9 tablespoons butter together with the granulated sugar on high speed until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition. On low speed, add half the dry ingredients, half the milk, the remaining dry ingredients, then the remaining milk. Increase the speed to medium and beat just until everything is well mixed, scraping down the bowl once. (Use a spatula to be sure there are no dry ingredients stuck to the bottom of the bowl.) Drop the batter in large dollops over the peaches in the skillet, then use an offset spatula to gently smooth it out, being careful not to disturb the peaches.
- Bake until the top is golden brown and puffed and a tester inserted in the center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool for 20 minutes. While the cake is still warm, run a butter knife around the outside, then invert onto a serving platter. Serve warm.

GEORGIA CORNBREAD CAKE
Definitely not cornbread, but this cake is delicious. Once baked, a nice crust forms on the outside that's flaky but inside the cake's tender and moist. The texture reminds us of an extra chewy brownie. Each bite is full of pecans. This makes an easy dessert or enjoy as an afternoon snack with coffee. You probably have the...

SWEET CAKE-LIKE CORNBREAD RECIPE
Because I grew up in two households, I learned to make cornbread two ways. One way, was to put it in a cast iron skillet- and this resulted in a firmer sort of cornbread. The other, was this cake like way that many people already know and love.

Tips:
- Use fresh or frozen corn. Fresh corn is best, but frozen corn can also be used. If using frozen corn, thaw it completely before using.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, making the cake lighter and more tender.
- Gradually add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
- Stir in the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix, as this will make the cake tough.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The baking time will vary depending on the size of the cake pan used.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
Conclusion:
Cornbread cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion.
