Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°F. Place a 10-inch cast iron skillet in the oven.
Step 2
Whisk cornmeal, flour, baking powder, and 0.5 tsp salt in a bowl.
Step 3
Stir molasses into warm milk until smooth, then pour into dry ingredients.
Step 4
Fold gently until just combined—the batter should look shaggy and lumpy.
Step 5
Carefully remove hot skillet from oven and add butter, swirling to coat.
Step 6
Pour batter into skillet and bake until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean, 12–14 minutes.
