Marcia Kiesel studs corn bread with sweet, chewy figs and salty feta. 
Baking it in a cast-iron skillet gives it a delicious crusty bottom.

Active: 15 MIN
Total: 45 MIN
Serves: Makes one 9" bread

Preheat the oven to 425F. Heat a 9- or 10" cast-iron skillet in the 
oven for 10 minutes. In a large bowl, whisk the cornmeal with the 
flour, sugar, baking powder, rosemary and salt. In a medium bowl, 
whisk the buttermilk with the eggs; pour over the dry ingredients and 
mix gently. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in the figs, feta and 
melted butter.

Remove the skillet from the oven. Add the oil and swirl to coat the 
bottom and halfway up the side. Scrape the batter into the skillet 
and lightly smooth the top. Bake for about 20 minutes, until the corn 
bread springs back when lightly pressed in the center. Invert the 
corn bread onto a rack and let cool for about 10 minutes, then turn 
it right side up. Cut the corn bread into wedges and serve.
