|
1 cup flour
1 cup corn meal
1/4 cup sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
2 beaten eggs
1 cup milk
1/4 cup oil
Mix together (do not beat), pour into greased 9x12 pan, bake at 425 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
To make this gluten free, substitute Corn Flour for the wheat flour. We really prefer the richness the corn flour creates.
In a pinch you can use melted margarine or butter in place of the oil
I do not recommend using the egg substitutes (you know the stuff that is egg whites only) it makes a heavy, really dense cornbread instead of the intended fluffy result.

Cornbread brought a story to mind. Back when I worked for the auto industry, I was at my desk in the office when one of the engineers asked a question about a formula he was working on. He needed a factor for it.Another engineer answered that would be Pi R Square.
My boss looked up from his desk and said,"Oh no, Pie are round, cornbread are square." At about that time we all noticed that a group of executives from Chrysler was in the room. They were part of a group that was checking the possibility of buying our company. They were all giving my boss strange looks. They rest of us just sat quietly. DR

Eileen,
when you try the cornbread be sure to have butter on hand or even better is honey butter.
If you have a chili recipe you like or a special soup, cornbread would be wonderful with it.
Also, beans, rice and cornbread. Known as the poor college students meal when I was supporting my ex while he was in college.

Geeeze! Tom and I were just talking about cornbread last night - were you reading our minds??? We're going to have it with fresh caught brookie trout and corn for dinner tonight. Gotta have lots of butter & honey with it, I think its a rule and who cares about a diet when you're eating something sooooooo delicious!
Another way to make it is to replace the fluids with applesauce, makes for a wonderful sweet texture and you don't need quite as much honey on top.
In the southwest, we add jalapenos and canned corn for a different flavor yet, don't recommend butter and honey with this version but do recommend a good lamb stew.
