List of Ingredients
2 - 4 tablespoons shortening (or bacon drippings)
1 1/2 cups white self-rising cornmeal
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 egg
1/2 cup buttermilk, or sweet milk
1/4 teaspoon of baking soda if using buttermilk
water
Preheat the oven to 425�F. Put the shortening in a cast-iron skillet and place on medium heat or in the oven.
Combine the cornmeal and flour, then mix in the egg and milk. Add water slowly, until the mixture is pour-able (like thick pancake batter). Take the hot pan from the oven, pour some of the melted shortening (a tablespoon or more) into the batter, then pour the batter into the hot pan. Place back in the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the outer crust is golden brown.
