Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 F and heat a cast-iron skillet in it for 10 minutes.
In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar (if using), baking powder, salt, soda, and corn kernels.
In another bowl, whisk the buttermilk, eggs, and 4 tablespoons of melted butter until blended.
Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, and swirl to coat the bottom.
Combine the dry ingredients with the buttermilk mixture until just blended.
Pour the batter into the hot skillet, return it to the oven, and bake for 23-26 minutes until golden brown and crusty.
