INGREDIENTS

1 1/4 cup All purpose flour
3/4 cup Cornmeal
2 teaspoon Baking powder
1/2 cup Granulated sugar
3/4 teaspoon Salt
1 1/4 cup Milk
1/4 cup Shortening
1 large Egg

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

In a medium size mixing bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Mix well with a whisk.

Add the shortening and cut it in with a pastry cutter or fork until well blended (looks like just cornmeal). Add the milk and egg; whisk a few times. Do not over whisk or the cornbread will turn out heavy and thick.

Pour batter into a heated #10 cast iron skillet or an 8"x11.5" baking dish coated in cooking spray.

Bake for 25-30 minutes or until top is golden brown and a butter knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cornbread cool slightly before cutting.

NOTES

Make sure to check date on baking powder! This recipe can be baked in a 8"x8" dish as well. It will just take a little longer.
