Prepare this cornbread at the last minute so you can serve it piping hot. Ingredients:
2 cups white cornmeal |
1/4 teaspoon baking powder |
1 1/4 teaspoons salt |
1 teaspoon sugar |
1/4 cup half-and-half |
1 tablespoon vegetable oil |
3/4 to 1 1/4 cups boiling water |
vegetable oil |
softened butter |
Directions:
1. Combine cornmeal and next 3 ingredients in a bowl; stir in half-and-half and 1 tablespoon oil. Gradually add boiling water, stirring until batter is the consistency of grits.
2. Pour 1/3 cup vegetable oil into a 15- x 10-inch jellyroll pan, spreading to edges. Scoop batter into a 1/4-cup measure; drop batter onto pan. Bake at 475° for 12 to 15 minutes. Turn cakes, and bake 5 more minutes or until golden brown.
3. Note: Stone ground (coarsely ground) cornmeal requires more liquid.
