1teaspoonbaking powder
1 teaspoonbaking soda
1teaspoonkosher salt
1cupbuttermilk

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Place the cast-iron in the oven while it heats up.
Whisk all the dry ingredients in one bowl and all the wet ingredients, minus two tablespoons of the melted butter, in another bowl.
Combine the wet and dry ingredients together.
Carefully remove the cast-iron skillet from the oven and pour the extra two tablespoons of butter in the pan. You may want to wait a few minutes for it to cool slightly so the butter doesn't burn. Then pour in the cornbread mixture and listen to that sizzle!
Bake for 15 - 20 minutes or until perfectly golden brown on top.
