Buttermilk Cornbread
Why I Love This Recipe
My sister gave me this recipe decades ago. It is tried and true. If you are considering making cornbread stuffing for Thanksgiving I recommend this cornbread. It is not very sweet but it has body and a great flavor. It is best baked in a greased castiron skillet but is also good baked in a dish or pan.
Ingredients You'll Need
1 1/4C. sifted flour
2 t. bakiing powder
1 t. salt
3/4 t. soda
2 T. sugar
1 C. corn meal
2 eggs, well beaten
1 1/4 C. buttermilk
3 T. melted shortening (I use vegetable oil)
Directions
Sift flour, baking powder, salt, soda and sugar. Add corn meal and mix well. Combine eggs, milk and shortening; add to dry ingredients, mixing well. Bake in a greased pan in 425 degree oven for 35 to 40 minutes., or until done.
