TEXAS CORN BREAD

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• 2. Put oil or bacon grease into a 12 inch cast iron skillet and heat on top of stove. Keep warm until ready to add to batter.
• 3. Mix dry ingredients.
• 4. Add milk and egg and stir just until combined. Do not over mix. It is okay and even desired if batter is lumpy.
• 5. Add hot oil, stirring so you don't cook the eggs as you add the oil.
• 6. Cook on high on top of stove for 30 - 45 seconds before placing in hot oven. This will give you a very crispy bottom crust.
• 7. Bake for 15 - 20 minutes in a hot oven. Begin checking for doneness after about 13 minutes. Cornbread will be done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. The finished product should be tall and golden brown. It will also slide right out of the skillet if you have a well-seasoned cast iron skillet.

TEXAS CORN BREAD

Steps:

• Mix corn meal, flour and salt. Add all the other ingredients and let stand at least 5 minutes without mixing. Grease the skillet well and heat it. Now stir in mixture and pour it into the skillet. Cover the skillet and bake it on the coals, checking every few minutes to see that the heat is right. It is cooked when the top crust is a golden brown color. You will find that the bottom is somewhat moist at this time. That is fine, for it should be. If you are making this for a party, you can double the recipe and bake it in a half aluminum pan at 350 degrees for between 15-20 minutes.
