My Youngest asked me if I will make her corn bread instead of cake for her birthday, next year. That's how good, and how much she likes this corn bread recipe. It's super low-fuss and I have modified it from the recipe on the Quaker cornmeal package, just a touch.
I like to make a heaping amount of corn bread and use a 13 X 9 inch pan. For the obvious reason of my ravenous corn bread eating young and husband. I have been known, on days when we are having left-over soup and have run out of corn bread, to whip up a second batch because it is loved that much in my household.
So light and moist (dry corn bread=ew) and it works out EVERY TIME. No fuss, no fancy stuff, just good, simple corn bread.
Corn Bread
3 1/2 C. Flour
1 1/2 C. Corn Meal
1/2 C. Sugar
4 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. Kosher Salt
2 C. 2% Milk
1/2 C. Canola Oil
2 eggs, whisked
Heat oven to 375 F.
Using butter, grease a 13 x 9 inch glass casserole dish.
Combine flour, corn meal, sugar, baking powder and salt in medium bowl.
Combine milk, oil and beaten eggs together and add to dry ingredients. Mix until the wet and dry ingredients just come together.
Pour batter into greased dish.
Bake for approximately 25 to 30 minutes until the top is lightly gbd (that's golden brown and delicious) and a wooden skewer, when inserted in the middle comes out clean.
Serve while warm with a generous slathering of creamy butter and sweet honey.
We don't do masks, we do face painting here. My Oldest was Hermione/an animal witch, so she got a cute little owl on her forehead. She actually gave me free-reign to paint whatever I wanted, as long as it was an animal.
My baby was a snow witch. I think this is partly because she wanted to be Elsa and a witch and so we met in the middle.
