Categories     Quick bread

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups coarsely ground yellow cornmeal ( (See Recipe Notes))
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups plain yogurt (at room temperature (can substitute an equal amount of buttermilk or half sour cream/half whole milk))
4 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
1 egg (at room temperature, beaten)
4 tablespoons honey

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F. Grease a 12-inch cast iron skillet or an 8-inch square or round pan, and set it aside.
  • In a large bowl, place the cornmeal (See Recipe Notes), baking powder, baking soda, and salt, and whisk to combine well. In a separate bowl, place the yogurt (or buttermilk or sour cream and milk mixture), butter, and egg, and whisk to combine well.
  • Create a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients and the honey. Mix until just combined. The mixture will be relatively thin (thinner if you used buttermilk). Pour the mixture into the prepared pan.
  • Bake for 20-30 minutes (closer to 20 minutes if using a cast iron skillet, closer to 25 minutes if you made the all purpose gluten free flour variation), or until lightly golden brown on top, golden brown around the edges, and firm to the touch in the center. Slice and serve immediately.

NO-FLOUR CORNBREAD



No-Flour Cornbread image

This recipe was the one my mother used, and her mother before her. Beyond that I can't go! It spoiled me for anything calling itself "cornbread" that has flour or sweeteners in it -- I call those "corn cake." This is great with chili, stew, and other hearty dishes. My dad used to crumble it up into buttermilk and eat it with a spoon. It's a requirement for our family's New Years Day dinner, along with the roast pork and black-eyed peas. It's also the main ingredient in Thanksgiving/Christmas/anytime turkey stuffing.

Time 26m

Yield 8-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 eggs
2 cups white cornmeal
2 cups buttermilk
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup bacon grease
salt (most bacon grease provides plenty of saltiness)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Put first 5 ingredients in mixing bowl. (If it makes you feel better, go ahead and mix the dry ingredients, whisk the eggs into the buttermilk, then combine dry/wet ingredients).
  • Mix with large spoon or whisk.
  • Put bacon grease in well-seasoned 10-inch cast iron skillet over medium to high heat.
  • Just as the bacon grease is about to start smoking, pour it into the other ingredients, stirring as you pour (if you can manage it). Leave enough in the skillet to coat the bottom and sides.
  • Pour entire mixture into the skillet.
  • Place skillet on middle rack of oven; bake until cornbread is springy in the middle, browned and pulling away from the skillet on the sides (about 15-20 minutes).
  • Remove from oven and invert skillet over serving plate. If cornbread does not drop easily, you may need to run an icing spatula or even a flexible metal egg-turner around/under it so it comes loose.
  • Recipe halves well, just remember you can't cut the bacon grease by half because you still need to coat the skillet.
  • Serve hot, with plenty of butter. Or margarine, if you insist.

WHEAT-FREE CORNBREAD



WHEAT-FREE CORNBREAD image

Categories     Bread     Bake     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Hominy/Cornmeal/Masa

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups yellow cornmeal ( substitute 1 - 1 and 1/2 cups white fine cornmeal for a lighter bread)
1/2 cup boiling water
1 tablespoon sugar (Adjust to preference, I add 1/3 cup sugar for company).
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 large egg
2 tablespoons canola or other vegetable oil
1 1/4 cups buttermilk

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Oil a baking pan (see Note) and set aside. In a medium bowl, stir together 1/2 cup of the cornmeal and the boiling water. The cornmeal will become mushy and then stiff. Set aside. 2. In a large bowl, sift together the remaining 1 1/2 cups of cornmeal, the sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. 3. Beat the egg into the cornmeal mush and stir in the oil. Whisk in the buttermilk to make a thin batter. Add the liquid ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisk just until the batter is smooth, and immediately pour it into the prepared pan. 4. Bake until the center of the cornbread is slightly rounded and firm and the edges are golden brown (see Note). Cook for 20 minutes or more before serving. Note: Bake in a square or round baking pan or in a cast-iron skillet: For an 8-inch square or 9-inch round pan, bake for 35 to 40 minutes; for a 9-inch square or 10-inch round pan, bake for 25 to 30 minutes. http://www.recipelink.com/cookbooks/1999/0609802429_4.html
