Ingredients

6 Tbsp. unsalted butter, melted
2 cups cornmeal
2 Tbsp. masa harina or corn flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. kosher salt
¼ tsp. pumpkin pie spice
6 Tbsp. granulated sugar

Preheat oven to 350°. Generously brush a 12-inch cast iron skillet with 2 tablespoons of butter; set aside remaining butter.

In a separate bowl, combine the remaining butter, buttermilk, sour cream, egg and pumpkin puree and whisk to combine. Add the dry ingredients and combine thoroughly. Pour batter in prepared pan and bake for approximately 20 minutes or until cornbread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted off-center comes out clean.
