Cornbread
A recipe for cornbread that, once you try it, you will not want to use another. It can be made with low -fat yogurt and low-fat milk and will still taste just as great. Try serving it alongside barbecued ribs, or with a hot bowl of chili. It is equally delicious sliced warm from the oven and topped with your favourite jelly or jam. This cornbread is also excellent as a base for turkey stuffing that is always a crowd-pleaser.
Equipment
- 2-Litre (2-quart) casserole or baking dish
Ingredients
Dry ingredients:
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- ½ cup unbleached flour
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
Wet ingredients:
- 1 cup plain yogurt
- ½ cup milk
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F. While your oven is preheating, mix all of the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Combine the wet ingredients (except the butter) in a separate bowl, whisk well.
- Melt the butter in a 2-litre casserole or baking dish in the oven or microwave. Swirl the melted butter around the pan so that you are in effect greasing the bottom and sides of the pan.
