This cast iron corn stick pan, from the iconic Tennessee-based brand, Lodge, is designed to make six golden cornbread sticks with crispy crusts all around the edges—and it’s on sale for $20. The heavy-duty cast iron offers expert heat retention to evenly bake the cornbread. It’s also pre-seasoned with vegetable oil, so the pan has a natural nonstick coating to ensure it gets the classic corn on the cob-like indents.

For the best results, the brand recommends brushing a half teaspoon of vegetable oil and pre-heating the pan in the oven before adding the batter. The pan’s angled feet will ensure a steady balance on your oven grates, while the dual handles make it easy to transfer from oven to table. And cornbread isn’t the only thing you can make with this pan—it’s also great for sausage-stuffed pancakes, polenta sticks, cornmeal madeleines, and even brownies.

Whether you’re using a cornbread mix or making your grandma’s famous recipe, this cast iron corn stick pan makes the perfect batch for just $20.
