Making these crackers is as easy as making cornbread and toast.

Can You Use Store-bought Cornbread for This Recipe?

Many store brands contain extra sugar, which could cause the crostini to brown faster.

Add 2 tablespoons of the oil to a 10-inch cast-iron skillet; place in oven to preheat.

Carefully remove hot skillet from oven.

Immediately add cornmeal mixture to skillet; do not stir.

Bake in preheated oven until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean, about 20 minutes.

Immediately invert cornbread onto a wire rack, and let cool completely, about 30 minutes.

Reduce oven temperature to 300F.

Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper, and set aside.

Cut cornbread in half to create 2 half-moons.

Cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices; place on prepared baking sheets.

Brush both sides of slices with melted butter.

Bake, turning halfway through cook time, until crispy, 35 to 40 minutes.

Let cool 10 minutes; serve warm.
