    In a large separate bowl, mix together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

    • 1 Cup cornmeal

    In a separate bowl, mix together the butter, buttermilk, and eggs. Pour the wet mixture into the cornmeal mixture and fold together until there are no dry spots (the batter will still be lumpy). Pour the batter into a greased 9” x 13” baking dish.

    • 1 Cup buttermilk

    • 2 Whole eggs

    Cut the kernels from the corn and sprinkle over the top of the batter pressing the kernels down with a spoon to submerge. Bake the cornbread until the top is golden brown and a tester inserted into the middle of the cornbread comes out clean, about 20 to 25 minutes.
