Do the normal bread steps now — dry ingredients together, wet ingredients whisked together, then everything combined. Take that hot oil out and start mixing into the batter. The salt of your tears helps with binding, probably.

Now pour that back into the very, very hot skillet. It probably smells great already. You’re doing so good. Text your momma.

You’ve gotta wait 20 - 25 minutes for it to bake depending on how hogwild you went with the creamed corn and jalapeños.
It’s a waiting game, so put on some Dwight Yoakum and scoot around the kitchen to pass the time. https://open.spotify.com/track/4XARrCJBmIpZ1gQa5qKz81?si=RVrF23VWSbyzyxudh8nDWg

Keep poking at it and look at the edges. Deep brown edges are just fine, but you want it golden in the middle. Don’t worry too much since you can’t really over- or under-bake this. https://open.spotify.com/track/4WgN9fBtAVL2RYGKFhuNW6?si=MyBNm8h7TT-bfMV3zerGHA
The time has come! Take it out! Let it cool a bit and it’s going to pull away from the pan. And that’s it! Go eat. Go cry. https://open.spotify.com/track/6uhBxmlfzIbxpIBRteQUQL?si=z6tZ1b2hT2mWBVjsZ1rM5g
It’s ok to feel sad this year. It’s ok to feel homesick for places that no longer feel like home or a time you can’t go back to. It’s ok if bread is filling your void!
And it’s also ok to feed your dog human foods in moderation.
