Frontier Cornbread

Posted in Country Cooking

I guess I am on a corn kick...lol.  We love cornbread  and this is a sweet recipe.  In our area there is a great debate about sweet versus unsweetened.  In my own extended family there is a split over it, however in our house we eat both kinds.  (Usually what is being served for the meal determines what I make.)

 

Frontier Cornbread

 

1 cup yellow corn meal

3 tsps baking powder

1 egg

1/4 cup cooking oil (or if you like the equivalent amount of bacon grease)

1 cup flour (wheat, barley or rice)

1/3 cup brown sugar

1 cup milk

 

Combine dry ingredients.  Add egg and milk.  Mix until smooth.  Add oil and mix again until smooth.  Pour into greased baking dish.  (a preheated cast iron frying pan is great or you can use a greased 10" pie plate)  Bake at 425 F for 25 to 30 minutes until golden brown.

 

This is great served with honey butter!
