What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Country Casual Cravings: Copycat Jiffy Cornbread! If you’re wondering why anyone would make a homemade version of a boxed mix, read on. Could it be I’m a control freak? Maybe I want a healthier version? Or is it because my adult son says he recalls fond memories of the blue and yellow box from his childhood? Truth be told, I was too lazy to drive into town to buy the store-bought variety. Good thing I keep a well-stocked pantry.
COPYCAT JIFFY CORNBREAD
Ingredients:
2/3 cup flour
1/2 cup organic cornmeal
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 egg
1/3 cup milk
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 400°. Spray a square pan with non-stick oil. Set aside. In a bowl, combine flour, organic cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and sea salt. Mix well. Whisk in vegetable oil until smooth. Add egg and milk. Stir only until lumps no longer remain. Do not over-beat. Transfer batter to prepared pan. Bake 15-20 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean. Serve warm.
do you have Red Lobster restaurants where you are? they always serve a corn bread prior to the meal arriving. I cobble them down, and love dipping in the garlic butteer sauce that comes with the lobster.
