This is why man invented the cast-iron skillet.

Thank you for including the scans with the recipes.
I notice the recipe card states “1/2 tea-spoon of salt”
Your transcription states 1 teaspoon.
My personal recipe does not use salt at all.
I substitute vegan options for the egg and milk and replace the butter with applesauce. I like a crispier cornbread so I bake at 425 for 20-20 minutes.
Whoops! I’ll go in and fix that–thanks for the heads-up! And I like the idea of applesauce in a cornbread to bring out the sweetness of the corn. I’m going to have to try your version!
