How to make Southern Skillet Cornbread

Start by preheating the oven to 400 degrees.

In a medium bowl, combine cornmeal, self-rising flour, mayo, buttermilk, butter and eggs. The mayo is the key and helps the cornbread stay moist. As you mix add a little water to get the right creamy consistency. You really want it to be creamy enough to pour into the skillet.
