Texas Buttermilk Cornbread

This authentic Texas buttermilk cornbread is a staple vegetarian side dish, celebrated for its golden, crusty exterior and tender, moist crumb. By heating the baking dish with butter before adding the batter, you achieve a characteristic savoury sizzle that creates a beautiful brown crust. It is a simple yet deeply satisfying bake that brings a touch of Southern-style comfort to any kitchen.

Perfect for pairing with a hearty bean chilli or a bowl of spicy soup, this homemade cornbread is as versatile as it is delicious. The use of buttermilk adds a subtle tang and a light texture, making it an excellent choice for a family dinner or a weekend gathering. Serve it warm with an extra knob of salted butter for the best flavour.
