- Reviews 1
Ready In: 30 mins
Yields: 1 8-inch pan
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1⁄2 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 1⁄2 cups cornmeal
- 1 -2 tablespoon honey
- 1 -2 large egg, beaten
- 1 -2 tablespoon oil
- 2 cups buttermilk
- honey, to serve
- butter, to serve
Directions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Grease an 8-inch by 8-inch pan or a muffin tin.
- Sift the salt, baking powder, and baking soda together and combine with the cornmeal.
- Mix the wet ingredients together, then add the dry, stirring just until smooth.
- Turn into the greased pan and bake about 20 to 25 minutes; a little longer if you added vegetables (see below) - or only about 15 minutes for muffins.
- VARIATIONS: Add 1 or even 1 1/2 cups grated raw yellow or green zucchini, for a very moist cornbread - the squash is pretty nearly undetectable, the green very pretty. Or add 1 cup grated carrots, also very pretty. It is not a bad idea to include 2 eggs (reduce the buttermilk to 1 1/2 cups) when adding the vegetables to help the bread cook well.
