   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
      3/4           cup  unsalted butter -- plus
   2              Tbsp.  unsalted butter
   1             medium  onion -- thinly sliced
   1           teaspoon  kosher salt -- plus more
                         Freshly ground black pepper
   2             medium  red- or pink-skinned apples -- thinly sliced
   5        tablespoons  sugar -- divided
   3          teaspoons  fresh thyme leaves -- divided
   1 1/2           cups  cornmeal
   1                cup  all-purpose flour
   1         tablespoon  baking powder
   2              large  eggs
   1 1/2           cups  buttermilk

Use Pink Lady or similar apples in this recipe.

If you don't have (or can't spare) a cast-iron skillet, this can also 
be finished off in an 8x8" glass dish for baking.

Preheat oven to 400. Melt butter in an 8" cast-iron or other heavy 
skillet over medium-high heat. Pour all but 2 Tbsp. butter into a 
small bowl; set aside.

Add onion to butter in skillet, season with salt and pepper, and 
cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened and beginning to 
brown, about 4 minutes. Add apples, 2 Tbsp. sugar, and 2 tsp. thyme 
and cook, stirring often, until apples are softened, about 4 minutes. 
Transfer onion mixture to a medium bowl and reserve skillet.

Whisk cornmeal, flour, baking powder, 1 tsp. salt, and remaining 3 
Tbsp. sugar in a large bowl. Gradually whisk in eggs, buttermilk, and 
3/4 cup reserved melted butter until smooth (no lumps should remain). 
Fold in half of onion mixture and scrape batter into reserved 
skillet. Top with remaining onion mixture and remaining 1 tsp. thyme.

Bake cornbread until golden brown and a tester inserted into the 
center comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.

DO AHEAD: Cornbread can be made 6 hours ahead. Reheat before serving, 
if desired.
