From the Fannie Farmer Cookbook (1965 edition). Fannie says you can use butter, bacon fat, chicken fat, or beef drippings for the shortening, but I usually use canola oil. Ingredients:
3/4 cup cornmeal |
1 cup flour |
1/3 cup sugar |
3 teaspoons baking powder (1 t baking soda plus 2 t cream of tartar for richer version) |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1 cup milk (or 1 c yogurt plus 1/4 c milk for richer version) |
1 egg, well beaten |
2 tablespoons shortening, melted (or 2 t canola oil) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Grease an 8 square baking dish.
2. Sift dry ingredients together.
3. Combine wet ingredients and gently mix into dry mixture.
4. Spoon into baking dish and bake 20 minutes.
