Cornbread

My grandpa really likes cornbread and rarely gets it - so I made him some!  He finally tried it tonight and liked it...yay!  It wasn't quite sweet enough for my taste, so while the below recipe (from a package of Walmart corn meal) is good, I might look around for a sweeter one :)

1 cup yellow corn meal
1 cup all-purpose flower
4 tbsp sugar
4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 cup milk
1 egg
1/4 cup vegetable oil

1. Preheat the oven to 425 F.

2. Combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl.  Then add the wet ingredients.

3. Mix until the batter is mostly smooth, a little less than a minute did it for me.

4. Bake in a greased square pan for 23-25 minutes or until golden brown on top.

Enjoy!

I learned while talking to some facebook friends that cornbread is only an American food.  None of the Europeans or Australians had ever tried it.  Who knew???
