BASIC SOUTHERN CORNBREAD
Source of Recipe
?
List of Ingredients
2 cups of self-rising cornmeal
2 eggs beaten
2 cups buttermilk
2 Tablespoons bacon drippings, melted, or veg. oil
Heat oven to 450 degrees. Grease your 9-inch skillet with about 2 tablespoon of shortening or oil (Use bacon drippings instead if available). Leave oil in bottom of pan... Place pan in oven to heat ....
Combine cornmeal, 2 eggs, buttermilk, and the melted bacon drippings. Mix well. I find a whisk does this nicely. Pour into hot skillet. Batter will sizzle.
Bake at 450 degrees for 35 minutes or until golden brown. Serves 6 to 8
Hint: Sprinkle a little cornmeal in the hot pan before adding the batter. It will brown and add a crispier texture.
If using plain cornmeal, add 2 teaspoons of
baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt for each cup of regular meal Recipe
