Ingredients:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup cornmeal
• 1/2 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 1/4 teaspoons salt
• 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 green onions, finely chopped
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 egg
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil (divided)
• 2 smoked sausages, diced

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures that your cornbread bakes to perfection.

2. Prepare Cast Iron Pan: Take a 10-inch cast iron pan and place it over medium heat. Add 1/4 cup of vegetable oil to the pan and allow it to heat up.

3. Render Sausage: Once the oil is hot, add the diced smoked sausages to the pan. Cook them, stirring occasionally, until most of the fat has been released, and the sausages turn crispy, typically around 7 to 8 minutes.

4. Remove Sausage: Once the sausage is crispy, remove it from the pan, but reserve the rendered fat. Place the pan with the sausage fat in the preheated oven. This step adds flavor to your cornbread.

5. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions. Stir until well combined.

6. Add Wet Ingredients: To the dry ingredient mixture, pour in the buttermilk, remaining 1/4 cup of vegetable oil, and crack in the egg. Mix the ingredients together until the dry ingredients are just moistened. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine.

7. Incorporate Sausage: Gently fold the rendered sausage into the cornbread batter. This distributes the smoky flavor of the sausage throughout the batter, ensuring every bite is bursting with deliciousness.

8. Bake: Retrieve the cast iron pan from the oven (make sure it’s hot!), and carefully pour the cornbread batter into the pan. Spread it evenly using a spatula.

9. Bake Until Golden: Place the pan back into the oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the cornbread turns a light golden brown and a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This step ensures your cornbread is cooked through and has a beautiful, golden crust.

10. Serve Warm: Once baked to perfection, remove the cornbread from the oven and allow it to cool slightly. Serve it warm as a delightful side dish for your favorite gumbo or enjoy it on its own as a satisfying snack.
