• 1/4 cup vegetable oil, plus more for pans
• 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup cornmeal
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1/4 cup mild-flavored (light) molasses
• 1 tablespoon maple sugar or raw sugar

1. Heat oven to 325u0b0F. Lightly oil two 5x2 1/2" loaf pans (or one 8 1/2x4 1/2" loaf pan). Whisk flour, cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the center, add eggs, milk, molasses, and 1/4 cup oil; whisk in dry ingredients. Divide batter between pans. Sprinkle with maple sugar.
2. Bake breads until golden and a tester inserted in the center comes out clean, 40-45 minutes for small loaves (50-55 minutes for large loaf). Transfer pans to a wire rack and let breads cool 10 minutes before turning out.
