Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 c yellow cornmeal (not self rising)

1 tsp sea salt
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 Tbsp olive oil or bacon drippings
2 c milk (see notes)
2 Tbsp oil for baking dish

Steps:

  • 1. NOTE: If your liquid is buttermilk, use baking soda; if your liquid is "sweet" milk, use baking powder.
  • 2. ANOTHER TIP: I whisk my egg, liquid and oil together until well blended before I add to mixture.
  • 3. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Sift all dry ingredients into large mixing bowl
  • 4. NOTE: Mix by hand - do not use electric mixer Add eggs, 1 tablespoon oil and 1 cup milk. Mix by hand until all ingredients are moist, then add the other cup of milk and mix gently until batter is well mixed. Add more milk if needed so that batter is fluid but not runny Do not overmix or bread will not rise
  • 5. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in 9" cast iron skillet on stove top. When oil is slightly smoking, add batter, spread out evenly and then place in oven for 30-35 minutes until golden brown.
  • 6. If you don't have a cast iron skillet, you need to buy one......just kidding, you can use a 9" cake pan or 9" square baking pan if you don't have a cast iron skillet.

WEST TEXAS CORNBREAD ---WITH A TWIST!



West Texas Cornbread ---With a Twist! image

I have made this twice both with sweat cornbread and savory and I prefer savory. Pictures posted without the sauce. But the sauce is awesome! I also prefer no cheese but my guests and husband love it with cheese.

Provided by Texasgal B

Categories     Savory Pies

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 lb hamburger lean
1 c diced yellow onion
1 can(s) black beans or red chili beans,drained
2 can(s) diced tomatoes and green chilies drained
2 can(s) whole green chilies or two cans diced
2 c shredded monterrey jack cheese
1 can(s) creamed corn
2 box cornbread mix for sweet or 1 recipe for buttermilk cornbread
1 can(s) green enchilada sauce
1 1/2 c sour cream
3 dash(es) green or red tabasco sauce

Steps:

  • 1. ESSENTIAL TOOLS: Skillet, colander for draining, 13 x 9 casserole dish, mixing bowl large for cornbread, mixing bowl medium for green chile sauce, spatula, large spoon and whisk
  • 2. In a colander, drain beans and diced tomatoes with green chilies.
  • 3. Cook hamburger and diced onions, drain. Add back to the skillet the hamburger and onion, drained beans and diced tomatoes with green chilies. Simmer for 10 minutes stirring occasionally. Salt and pepper to taste at this stage.
  • 4. Heat oven to 350 degree Spray casserole dish. Set aside.
  • 5. Combine cornbread mix your choice. Add creamed corn to the mix. I have used both and prefer the savory over the sweet cornbread mix. Using a buttermilk recipe seems to give it that added twang. Just be sure you make a 9 x 13 dish size of cornbread mix for this recipe.
  • 6. Spoon half of the cornbread mix into the bottom of the dish. Add hamburger/bean mixture Add two cups of shredded cheese.
  • 7. Layer whole green chilies over hamburger mixture. Then top with the rest of the cornbread mix. Smooth out.
  • 8. Cook until cornbread is done. I have timed it at 45 minutes inserted a knife it came out clean but you judge by your oven. If you cook with cast iron check after 30 it tends to cook quicker.
  • 9. In the meantime while baking, combine in medium bowl your one can of green enchilada sauce and sour cream. Add a couple of dashes of Tabasco sauce, salt or red chili powder its your preference though.
  • 10. OPTIONS FOR CASSEROLE: two diced jalapenos. OPTIONS FOR THE SAUCE: Green chilies diced, green onions diced.

TEXAS CORNBREAD



TEXAS CORNBREAD image

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup stone-ground cornmeal
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup low-fat plain yogurt or buttermilk
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon mild-flavored honey
2 large eggs
3 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F, with a rack in the middle. Sift together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Beat together the yogurt or buttermilk, milk, honey, and eggs in another bowl. Place the butter in a 9x9 inch heatproof baking pan or a 9-inch cast-iron skillet. Place in the oven for 3 or 4 minutes, or until the butter melts. Remove the pan from the oven, and brush the butter over the sides and bottom. Pour off the excess melted butter into the yogurt and egg mixture. Stir together. Quickly fold the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients with just a few strokes of a wooden spoon. Don't worry about lumps; you don't want to overwork the batter. Pour the batter into the pan or skillet. Bake at once for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan on a rack or serve hot.
