• 3 add the remaining 2 tbsps of oil into a large skillet, being sure to coat well on all sides. heat the skillet until smoking and add the batter. spread so it covers each area of the pan equally. transfer the skillet to the pre-heated oven and bake at 325 until the cornbread is golden brown and solid (toothpick comes out clean in the center) about 25 minutes. let cool before serving.

• 5 whisk the milk with the eggs, cinnamon and nutmeg.
• 6 coat a skillet with butter and set to a high heat. while the pan warms, place the cornbread slices into the egg/milk mixture and let soak (if the cornbread proves to be too thick, slice in half). be sure to soak both sides. once the pan is sufficiently heated; turn to a medium heat and place soaked cornbread slices into the hot pan.
• 7 check the face-down side of the french-toast, flipping once golden brown to cook the face-up side. once cooked; serve with berries, confectioners sugar, butter, and maple syrup.
