Rustic Skillet Cake

A simple cake baked in a 12-inch cast iron skillet. Combines basic pantry staples with a hint of cinnamon and brown sugar swapped for white sugar, plus a splash of buttermilk for moisture and tang. Texture firm enough to hold its shape but tender when sliced. Golden crust develops as batter thickens in the pan. Bake until toothpick comes out clean and top springs back lightly to touch. Avoid overmixing to keep crumb tender, use any neutral oil if butter runs low. No mixer needed; whisk and fold. Cool slightly in skillet to firm edges before turning out.
