Description
Folding grilled corn into the batter of this skillet grilled corn cornbread gives it a subtle and smoky flavor along with a fresh crunch.
Ingredients
- For corn
- 2 ears of corn, shucked
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- Pinch of kosher salt
- Pinch of black pepper
- For cornbread
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1–1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1–1/2 cups stone-ground cornmeal
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1–1/2 tablespoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1–1/2 cups buttermilk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon minced chives
Instructions
- Preheat a gas or charcoal grill on high heat.
- Rub the corn with 1 teaspoon olive oil and pinches of salt and pepper. Grill until lightly charred, about 5-7 minutes. Let the corn cool slightly before slicing the kernels off the cob.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Place the butter in a 10-inch cast iron skillet over low heat. As the butter melts, tip the pan, so it coats the bottom and sides. In a large bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda. In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, oil, and eggs. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients with 1 cup corn kernels until just combined. Carefully spread the batter into the warmed skillet. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown. Top with the remaining corn and chives before serving.
