Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup cornmeal
1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup boiling water
3 tablespoons corn oil
1 egg
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

Steps:

  • Grease an 8-inch round or square baking pan (or, for more authenticity, a cast iron skillet). Preheat oven to 425. Place pan in oven to preheat.
  • Combine cornmeal, flour, salt, and sugar in mixing bowl. Add corn oil and use a cutting motion with spoon so that oil will be well blended with other ingredients. Add the boiling water and mix well.
  • Add cold milk and stir. Let stand for a few minutes until batter has cooled to room temperature.
  • Mix in egg and then baking powder; beat briskly.
  • Remove preheated pan from oven and pour in batter. Bake until lightly browned (approx. 20 minutes).
