    List of Ingredients




    12 wide-mouth pint (2-cup) canning jars with lids and rings
    1/2 yard print cotton fabric
    6 yards craft ribbon (for jars)

    For 1 jar
    1 cup yellow cornmeal
    1 cup sifted flour
    1/4 cup granulated sugar
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    4 teaspoons baking powder

    For 12 jars
    12 cups yellow cornmeal
    12 cups sifted flour
    3 cups granulated sugar

    16 tablespoons baking powder

    Recipe



    In a large bowl, thoroughly mix all dry ingredients.

    To package in jars: Wash, rinse and thoroughly dry canning jars, lids and bands.

    Pre-mix ingredients thoroughly before filling wide-mouth pint canning jars with 2 cups each of the finished mix. Layering ingredients for this recipe will require larger jars.

    Place two cups Texas cornbread mix in each wide-mouth pint canning jar.

    Cut twelve 7-inch circles from cotton fabric. Top each jar with fabric circle, and tie with ribbon.

    Attach the following instructions on a gift tag:

    1 container (2 cups) Texas Cornbread Mix
    1 egg
    1 cup milk
    1/4 cup soft shortening (Crisco)

    Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Grease one 8-inch square pan, or 8-inch cast iron skillet, or cast iron cornbread mold.

    Place cornbread mix into bowl, mix thoroughly. Add egg, milk and shortening. Hand-beat until smooth, about one minute. DO NOT OVERBEAT!

    Bake for 20 to 25 minutes for pan or skillet, 15 to 20 minutes for cornbread mold.
