Ingredients

For the cornbread:

Butter to grease the skillet
1 cup white cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 large egg
1/3 cup vegetable or canola oil

For the whipped maple butter:

1 cup salted butter (softened) (2 sticks)
½ cup real maple syrup

Instructions

Make the cornbread:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Grease an 8-inch cast iron skillet generously with butter; set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a whisk to combine the white cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vegetable oil. Pour this wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir gently to combine.
Pour the batter into the greased cast iron skillet. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes, or until a knife comes out clean when inserted into the center of the cornbread.

Make the butter:

In a large mixing bowl, beat the 1 cup of butter with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy.
Add the real maple syrup and beat on medium-high speed for at least 1 minute until well combined.
Serve the cornbread warm with the homemade whipped maple butter.
