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

Time 40m

Yield 10 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 to 3/4 cup canola oil or bacon drippings
2 cups yellow or white cornmeal
1 teaspoon salt
1-1/4 cups water
Optional: Butter and honey

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°. Add oil to a 12-in cast iron or oven-proof skillet; place in oven. In a large bowl, whisk together all cornmeal, salt and water. Mixture will be thick. Carefully spread mixture evenly in skillet, spooning some of the oil on top of batter. Bake until edges start to brown, about 35 minutes. To serve, break into pieces and serve with butter and honey if desired.
