Recipe Introduction


The way my dad always made it.


List of Ingredients




1 1/2 C. cornmeal
1 C. flour
1 1/2 C. buttermilk
2 heaping t. baking powder
3 T. bacon drippings
2 eggs
1 t. baking soda
2 T. butter

Recipe



Put buttermilk, eggs, melted and cooled butter into a mixing bowl. Sift all dry ingredients together and add to the wet mixture. Mix until well blended. Pour into a 9x12" which has been heated in the oven with the bacon grease. Pour in the batter and as the grease rises up in the corners of the pan, spoon it up and drizzle over top of the batter. Bake at 400" for 30-35 minutes.
My dad use to almost halve this and bake it in a square pan.
