Faith Hill's cornbread goes perfectly with her husband Tim McGraw's Chicken and Dumplings. Straight from the Oprah show. I'm guessing on the time - I will correct it later. Use an Iron Skillet (7-10 inch ) *** I have updated this as well since there seemed to be a hishap with the Dumplings . (Feb. 20. 06) Enjoy :O).
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons butter flavor crisco
1 1/2 cups martha white yellow cornbread mix
1 egg
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 500°
2. Put 3 tablespoons Crisco in the iron skillet and melt. Set aside.
3. In a bowl, mix cornmeal, egg and buttermilk to right consistency (should not be thick nor too liquidy). Pour the melted shortening into the mixture, leaving a small amount in the skillet so the bread will not stick, and stir. Sprinkle a little bit of cornmeal in the skillet then pour the mixture into the skillet.
4. Bake at 500° until it is deliciously golden brown.
