This is a recipe came from my mother in law. She submitted it to a cook book that was published in the mid to late 70s to benefit the cause of a young girl who had been badly injured. I love these old family recipes - and the history as Mom carefully explains each one to me.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups coarse stone-ground yellow cornmeal
1/3 cup white flour
1/3 cup wheat flour
1/3 cup rye flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup sugar or 3 tablespoons honey
2 eggs
8 tablespoons shortening, melted and cooled
6 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled
1 1/2 cups milk

1. Preheat oven to 400°F.

4. Gently blend wet into dry ingredients for 1 minute until smooth.
5. Let rest 5 minutes.
6. Pour into lightly oiled 8 x 12 metal pan.
7. Bake for 35 minutes.
