- Flatten them with fingers until you get a half an inch thick disk.
- Place a skillet on medium heat and add oil.
- Once the oil heats up, place disks into it and cook for about 3 minutes or until the edges start turning golden brown.
- Flip the cornbread to cook on the other side for three more minutes until it gets crispy and golden.
- Once done, remove from the skillet, pat with a paper towel to remove excess oil and serve hot.
