  • Total 1 hr 30 min
  • Servings 1

Ingredients

  • 1/2 pounds (about 8 slices) bacon
  • 2 1/2 cups Gold Medal™ unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 can (14 oz) whole corn kernels, drained
  • 1/2 can (14 oz) creamed corn
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Steps

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place uncooked bacon slices on top. Bake bacon until crispy and cooked through, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and place bacon on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any extra grease. Heat oven to 350°F.
  • 2
    In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. In a separate large bowl, whisk together eggs, butter and buttermilk. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir to combine.
  • 3
    Crumble cooled bacon into small pieces and add to batter. Add corn kernels, creamed corn and cheese and fold into batter.
  • 4
    Pour batter into a lightly greased loaf pan or casserole dish. Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 1 hour to 1 hour, 15 minutes.
  • 5
    Remove cornbread from oven and cool 5 minutes in pan before removing and placing on a cooling rack. Cool completely before slicing.
