Basic Low Fat Cornbread

This provides a satisfying bread quickly and easily. The core recipe comes from Joetta Handrich Schlabach's "Extending the Table: A World Community Cookbook", one of only five out of my collection of cookbooks that I continue to mine for new ideas. It is called "Kentucky Cornbread" there. I took out the salt, and specified nonfat milk.
