Yield:
6 Servings
Ingredients:
Amount Ingredient
1 cup All-purpose flour
1 cup Cornmeal (preferably white, stone-ground)
2 tbl Sugar
4 tsp Baking powder
1 tsp Salt
1 cup Milk
1/4 cup Oil (Granny used melted lard)
Instructions:
Instructions: Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Generously grease an 8x8 pan (or cast iron skillet) and put it in the oven to get hot while you mix up the bread.

In medium bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Stir in remaining ingredients, beating by hand JUST until well mixed.

(There will still be a few lumps.) Pour batter into hot, prepared pan. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.

Cut into squares, and serve hot.

Personal note: As a kid, we would crumble cornbread into a glass of milk for an afternoon snack. I still love it this way, but my daughter thinks its disgusting!

PS...I do have Grannys recipe for authentic southern Hush Puppies if youd like that one....
