Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/3 cup oil (we use vegetable oil)
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Mist a 9" baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
  • Combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, salt, and baking powder in a medium sized bowl. Set aside.
  • Stir together the egg, milk, and oil in a medium sized measuring cup. Pour into your dry ingredients and gently whisk until the ingredients are combined.
  • Transfer the batter to your prepared baking dish. Bake 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick poked into the center of the bread comes out clean.
  • Slightly cool before slicing. Serve with butter and honey.

Notes

We have also used melted butter in place of the oil in this recipe. While it works ok, I still suggest using oil in this recipe. It produces a more moist bread.
