Best 7 Fried Cornbread Iii Recipes

HOECAKES (FRIED CORNBREAD)

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix together the dry ingredients with a wooden spoon. Add the buttermilk slowly. Mix in the egg, cutting into the yolk with the spoon's edge to help it mix in better. Add the water and fat or oil and stir well. The texture should be like thick soup, so you may need to add more water.
• I like to fry the cornbread cakes in my grandmother's castiron skillet or on a flat iron griddle, but any skillet or griddle will be fine. Heat the skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease it well with the fat of your choice (butter is delicious, but it tends to burn unless you mix it with a little oil). Once the skillet is hot and the fat is sizzling, drop the batter from a 1⁄8-cup (2-tablespoon) measure into the skillet, in batches if necessary.
• Fry the cakes until the edges are bubbling and the centers are set, then flip with a spatula to fry them on the other side until they're done. Like with pancakes, you can't say how long it will take, but the second side always cooks faster than the first. If the cakes seem greasy, drain them on paper towels before serving hot.

OVEN-FRIED CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a bowl, whisk together cornmeal, onion powder, and salt. Add water and whisk well to combine until there are no lumps; batter will be thin and runny.
• Pour bacon fat into the pan, coating the bottom in an even layer. Pour the cornbread batter into the center of the pan, allowing it to spread out untouched. (There will be a layer of bacon fat on top of the batter; this is normal.) Bake for 30 minutes.
• Cornbread is done when the edges are deep brown and gently curling inwards. Remove from oven and pour off remaining fat (which can be discarded or reserved for another use); let rest, 10 minutes. Flip the cornbread onto a flat work surface. Pat with paper towels to absorb extra grease. Cornbread will be dense, rich, and crisp on the edges. Slice into 8 squares and serve with butter (optional, but indulgent!).
