Pour batter: Transfer the prepared batter into the greased baking pan, spreading it evenly to ensure uniform baking.

Bake to perfection: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until the cornbread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
