1 cup cornmeal |
3/4 cup flour |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
3 teaspoons baking powder |
1/3 cup molasses |
2 eggs, beaten |
2 tablespoons oil |
2 tablespoons butter, melted |
Directions:
1. Heat milk in saucepan until it is scalded. 2. Put cornmeal in a mixing bowl and pour the hot milk over it. 3. Mix thoroughly and then let it cool to lukewarm. 4. Add the flour, salt, and baking powder to the cooled cornmeal mixture and stir well. 5. Stir in the molasses, beaten eggs, oil, and melted butter. 6. Pour the mixture into a well greased bread-stick pan. 7. Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20 minutes. |
