I found this CI cornbread pan at a flea market for $8. I can't wait to make some bread. Does anyone have a good cornbread recipe?

CORN BREAD

2 Cups cornmeal
¼ Cup sugar
2 Tablespoons flour
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1 Teaspoon baking soda
1 Teaspoon salt
2 Cups buttermilk (or 1 cup each milk & sour cream)
¼ Cup oil
1 Egg

Preheat oven to 425 degrees and grease a 9 inch square or round baking pan. Mix dry ingredients together. Mix in remaining ingredients. Pour batter into prepared backing pan and bake 20 to 25 minutes or until done.

Note: If you're using a muffin or corn pan, you will need to watch and possibly adjust the baking time.

PS. To make this a gluten free (GF) recipe, use rice flour instead of all-purpose flour.

Thanks Sharon!

I like the self rising white cornmeal mix (Sunflower or Aunt Jemima)....I'm a "no-surgar" in my cornbread kind of guy!!!!

Corn sticks

1 1/2 cups white cornmeal
1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
1/4 cup melted butter or vegetable oil
melted butter for brushing

Preheat oven to 450°. Grease corn stick pan with oil; place in the oven while making batter. In mixing bowl, combine cornmeal, flour, salt, baking powder, and soda; stir to blend. . In another bowl whisk together the egg, milk, and melted butter or oil; add to dry ingredients, stirring just until moistened. Spoon batter into the preheated corn stick pan, filling each mold about 3/4 full. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool 5 minutes then carefully remove from pan. Brush with melted butter, if desired. Makes about 18 corn sticks

It will be fun to see different brands of cornmeal recipes. It sounds like we should have a cornbread cook off!

Most mixes and purchased pre-mixed foods now make me physically ill (celiac disease); but, when I used to be able to eat mixes (or thought I could), Jiffy's mix was pretty good and definitely easy.

Ooooo thanks for the gluten-free recipe variation!! I have a gluten intolerance as well (not celiacs).

I had some black bean and garlic tortilla chips the other night .. omg they were good! Geeeesh, that tore me up by the next morning - come to find out there was wheat flour in them. Who puts wheat flour in corn chips?? Alas.

* 1/3 cup vegetable oil
* 1 large egg, lightly beaten

Ready In: 25 minutes

Anyone else fry their corn bread ?

As a child, I ate pawnhaus (spelling may be incorrect). That's a sort of cornmeal mush, solidified, with pig parts added and then fried and served with maple syrup. (Fried cornmeal mush isn't bad, minus the pig parts.)

BobHenry:
How do you fry yours? That might be a good, quick camping bread. What's your recipe for that?

Take your corn bread recipe and simply fry it like a pan cake instead of baking it in the oven.

Kind of a "I'm hungry and want it now" thing.

I find the baked corn bread kinda dry but really love my fried corn bread.

I just might have to make a big pot of bean this weekend
