This was my grandmother's recipe. Here the cornbread is first fried to give it shape and begin the browning process, then baked to give it a wonderful crunchy crust and creamy inside. Yum!

Corn Dodger Ingredients

1 cup cornmeal	2 cups boiling water
1/2 tsp salt	1/2 cup vegetable oil

Instructions for Corn Dodger

Preheat the oven to 425. Put water on to boil.

Mix the cornmeal and salt. Add enough boiling water (1 - 2 cups) to make the cornmeal moist but not runny.

Spoon into a skillet and flatten into 4 patties. Fry in the vegetable oil until the shape holds and the cornmeal is just beginning to brown.

Move the cornbread to an un-greased cookie sheet and cook in the oven for 30 - 40 minutes, turning the cornbread at the halfway point. The longer it cooks, the crispier it gets.
