MY DADDY'S CORN PONE



My Daddy's Corn Pone image

Here's one of the things my dad used to make (it was a short list, and it also included a simple and amazing oyster stew and the best chocolate fudge in the world). I love this stuff... it's like a dense, very moist cornbread, and unique. I haven't seen a similar recipe for it. Enjoy! Serve with butter.

CORN PONE



Corn Pone image

My husband's grandmother gave me this corn pone recipe years ago. She always made it with bacon drippings, which is heavenly, but if you're trying to be a little more health-conscious, you can use canola oil or a combination of the two. I cook it until it's crisp almost all the way through. It's delicious hot, warm or cold. -Tina Quiggle, LaGrange, Georgia

CORN PONE

Pass the butter and enjoy. They're great with a stew or gravy too. In the past, the Indians made these with just corn meal and water and ate it as their daily bread. courtesy of www.emerils.com

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup cornmeal
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons bacon drippings
1/2 cup milk

Steps:

  • Stir together the cornmeal, baking powder and salt. Add the bacon drippings and milk. Stir well. Making about 4 pones (flattened circles) for each bowl of batter, plop the batter onto a greased cast iron skillet. Cook until golden brown on each side, flipping once.
  • To present them in a unique, but truly Indian style, make corn pone this way as the Sioux sometimes did.
  • Form into small rolls and wrap in green corn husks. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 45 minutes. Check one to make sure they're done and then bring the rest in the corn husks and serve with jam, butter or honey.

A bona fide Southern tradition! Authentic Southern corn pone is never sweet, and is baked in a cast iron skillet. Just like Grandma used to make!

Time 45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

¼ cup canola oil
1 ½ cups white cornmeal
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 ⅓ cups buttermilk
2 eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place a 9 inch cast iron skillet on the center rack.
  • When the skillet is hot, carefully remove the skillet from the oven. Pour the canola oil into the skillet and gently swirl the pan to coat the bottom and the sides. Return the pan to the oven for ten minutes.
  • While the oil is heating, mix together the cornmeal and salt in a medium bowl. Add the eggs and buttermilk and mix together to make a thin batter.
  • Carefully pull out the rack with the cast iron skillet and pour the batter into the preheated skillet.
  • Bake the corn pone until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. If desired, turn the oven to broil for the last few minutes of baking to brown the top.
  • Remove the skillet from the oven and shake the pan to loosen the corn pone from the skillet. Serve the corn pone warm from the skillet or turn out onto a plate.

DELICIOUS CORN PONE



Delicious Corn Pone image

This is a very OLD recipe that makes the most marvelous moist cornbread! I was given this recipe by a dear relative who was a neighbor of mine after I was married. Jeannette taught me so many things about cooking and baking. This was her grandmother's corn pone recipe. Everyone loves it and asks me for the recipe. I have not found a recipe here that is like it. This can be served all year round. It is requested at all family and Church dinners. It does not taste anything like the drier cornbreads. Some area restaurants include pieces of this type of moist pone in their bread baskets. I hope you try it and like it too!

1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup butter, sliced and softened
4 cups boiling water
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups milk, room temp
2 eggs, room temp

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cornmeal, sugar, and salt.

  • Add the flour and baking powder; stir to mix in well.

  • Spray a 13 x 9-inch pan with Pam.
  • Pour in your baking pan.
  • Bake 1 hour in a preheated 325 degree oven.
  • Then lower the temperature to 300 degrees and bake 1 hour.
  • Do NOT cut until at least 1/2 hour after taking out of the oven.
  • Note: The number of servings will depend on how you cut the squares.
  • If you cut the square into 1-inch pieces you will get a large number, but people will go back for more and more. We like the larger squares.
