Southern Cornbread
- 3 cups cornmeal (I use Three Rivers)
- 3 cups sweet milk or 3 cups buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise (I use Duke's)
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 2 tablespoons self rising flour
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Put 1 of the tablespoons of oil and a pat of real butter in a black iron skillet.
- Place in oven to melt butter.
- In the meantime, place the cornmeal and flour in a mixing bowl.
- In a separate bowl, whisk egg and then add mayo, the remaining oil and milk.
- Stir this together and then add to dry ingredients.
- Take the skillet out of the oven and pour the cornbread mixture into the sizzling butter.
- Place back in oven and cook for 30 minutes or until golden brown on top.
- When done, invert on a plate or keep in skillet.
- Slice a piece and slather butter on it.
- Eat and enjoy.
- ( or for a special treat, crumble into a bowl while still warm and add some cold milk.)
- YUM.
