Recently I discovered a very old recipe for corn bread. It was from my husband’s side of the family and he remembers it so well. I only made one change to the recipe and that was to use butter instead of Crisco.

Serves: 12

Cooking Time: 25 min

Ingredients

1 cup flour
1 cup corn meal
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup buttermilk
3 tablespoons melted butter, cooled slightly
1 egg, slightly beaten

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F.
In a large bowl, sift together the flour, corn meal, sugar, baking soda, salt, and baking powder.
Add the buttermilk, butter, and egg and mix all together until just combined.
Pour into an 8 8-inch buttered pan and bake for 25 minutes at 375°F.
