Another Cookgirl Original from my youth. Where did I come up with these recipes? The ingredients have been updated; real syrup instead of syrup product, good quality bacon, homemade not boxed cornbread. For success with this recipe, you want a dense, firm textured cornbread not one with a cake-like texture or the bread will fall apart. Ingredients:
4 slices cornbread, day old, cut into 1/2 slices (or you can cube the bread into 1 1/2-inch cubes) |
2 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled (vegetarian version use facon or tempeh bacon) |
maple syrup, warmed |
Directions:
1. In a castiron skillet, cook the bacon on medium heat until crisp; reserve fat. Set aside to cool.
2. In same pan, fry the cornbread slices or cubes until golden brown on all sides.
3. Place fried cornbread on a plate and crumble the bacon on top.
4. Pour some warm maple syrup on top. Watch another episode of Land of the Lost.
