Red and Brown Eccentric Star

 

Sure, you can make corn bread from a mix, but this is SO much better. The secret is stone-ground cornmeal. Regular cornmeal has had its germ removed for a longer shelf life. Stone-ground cornmeal must be stored in the refrigerator, but it has a nutty taste and crunchy texture you won’t get from a mix.

 

World’s Best Corn Bread

 

1 2/3 cups stone-ground cornmeal

1 2/3 cups white flour

1/2 cup sugar

2 tablespoons (This isn’t a typo) baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 2/3 cups milk

4 eggs, lightly beaten

1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons melted butter

 

Stir first five ingredients together in a large bowl. In a medium bowl, combine milk, eggs and melted butter. Pour the wet mixture into the dry one. Stir until just combined; don’t over mix. Pour into buttered 9” baking pan and bake at 375F for half an hour. Serve warm with butter and honey.
