Custardy Corn Souffle (spoonbread)
Source of Recipe
Internet
List of Ingredients
1 1/2 cups corn meal
1 1/3 tsp. salt
1 1/2 cups boiling water
4 Tbs. butter, melted
5 eggs
2 cups milk
1 Tbsp. baking powder
Mix corn meal, and salt together. Scald with the boiling water and stir in the melted butter.
Beat the eggs until very light and add the milk and combine
Combine the dry and wet ingredients and mix in the baking powder.
Pour into a 3 qt. baking dish or souffle dish. Bake at 360 30-40 minutes. It should be firm enough to spoon, not soupy.
This is an old recipe and just one I've done without giving a lot of thought to. Sort of handed down in the family.
Sometimes we separate the eggs and whip the whites to a firm but not dry meringue, as in making a souffle, and fold them in to the batter just before putting it in the oven to bake.
