Directions:
- Preheating your oven to 450 degrees.
- Put a 9 cast iron skillet on the stove over medium heat and put the shortening in the skillet.
- Mix all the dry ingredients together in one bowl.
- Mix the egg and buttermilk (milk) together in another bowl.
- Mix the dry and wet ingredients together.
- When you start to see little wisps of smoke coming from the hot shortening, pour most, not all of the shortening into the cornbread batter and mix well.
- Then pour the batter into the hot skillet. Remove after a few minutes.
- Place in the middle of the preheated oven and bake about 30 minutes, until nice and brown on top.
