my corn bread recipe

This is also known as Yankee corn bread

1 cup milk
1/2 cup butter
1 large egg
1 1/4 cups yellow cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 tblsp. baking power
1- 8 oz. can whole kernel corn

preheat oven to 400 degrees.grease bottom and side of round pan 9"x 1 1/2 " with shortening

beat milk, 1/4 cup butter, and egg in a large bowl. stir in remaining ingredients except the remaining butter. stir until flour is moist. there will be lumps. pour into pan.

bake 20 to 25 min. until golden brown and toothpick comes out clean.

remove from oven and use remaining butter on the top of the bread.

i made this last night. it was delicious. some times i forget what i can make from scratch and how good it can be. just another step in becoming self sufficient.
