Our Favorite Cornbread
This goes back to the first year we were married. We bought a bag of stone ground meal (I didn't even know what it was, but Dick thought he'd found a treasure) and this recipe was on the back.
List of Ingredients
- 2 cups cornmeal, preferably white
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 4-5 tablespoons oil
Instructions
- Heat oil in heavy castiron skillet in 450-degree oven while oven preheats, about 5 minutes.
- Stir dry ingredients together. Combine eggs and milk and then add to dry ingredients. Stir in hot oil. Quickly pour the batter into the hot skillet.
- Bake at 425-450 degrees about 20 minutes.

This stands up to any cornbread recipe--pretty good for a Yankee.
